Buffet Crampon Tosca Bass Clarinet
In 2014, Buffet Crampon introduced a new professional bass clarinet, designed to meet the rigorous demands of symphonic orchestras. Building on the legacy of their pre-1998 models, this Tosca bass clarinet combines traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology, providing a rich and focused sound admired in the B-flat and A models launched in 2004 and the E-flat model in 2010.
Exceptional Sound and Innovative Mechanism
Featuring a luminous tone and well-focused sound, the Tosca bass clarinet is equipped with an innovative register key system, allowing even the most demanding musicians to perform with unparalleled confidence and freedom. The Tosca’s soundless mechanism liberates artists from the typical constraints of key action on the lower joint and plateau keys, enhancing both playability and comfort.
This new bass clarinet in the Tosca range offers exceptional quality at a competitive price, solidifying its position as a top choice for musicians worldwide.
