Buffet Crampon Gala Clarinet
The launch of the Legende and Tradition clarinets in 2017 marked the beginning of a new family of bores, including the innovative Gala Clarinet. These instruments, blending tradition and modern craftsmanship, are captivating musicians worldwide. In 2020, Buffet Crampon expanded this family with the Gala Clarinet, designed to exceed expectations with its high-quality French manufacturing and accessible price.
Advanced Design and Harmonious Sound
The Gala Clarinet incorporates the latest research, resulting in a balanced instrument with rich harmonics throughout its range. Equipped with wooden chimneys made from Dalbergia melanoxylon and fitted with leather pads, the Gala features tasteful details like black nickel-plated rings, a medallion, and a ligature that enhance its understated elegance.
Available in Bb and A keys, the Gala Clarinet comes in a traditional “pochette” case, offering both professional musicians and dedicated amateurs a distinguished instrument proudly “made in France.”
