This year, Buffet Crampon is proud to present once again a completely new model, Légende. The Tradition, with its entirely new bore concept took the music world by surprise, combining age-old know-how with fundamental research.
Whereas the Tosca clarinet was the R13 bore’s top range model, the Divine features the Buffet Crampon RC bore’s latest evolution.This new range of clarinet represents a major step forward in Buffet Crampon’s history, by fusing technical expertise with unparalleled craftsmanship in French wind instrument manufacturing. New keywork and spatulas enhance the clarinet’s ergonomics without destabilizing the musician’s capabilities. As with the Tosca model, the Divine clarinets are equipped with a low F correction key. The Divine is made of grenadilla wood with specific upper joint Green Line tone-hole slots eliminating air leaks on tone-holes most prone to crack.The carbon wire (a Buffet Crampon patent), which replaces the metal rings, makes the clarinet 60 grams lighter and thus contributes to its exceptional balance with greater vibration and freer blowing. The Divine clarinet comes with two barrels – 65mm (442hz) and 66mm (440hz) – which fit with both the Bb and the A model.
The improved bore favors flexible register-crossing and freer blowing during the most demanding pieces. This model benefits from having the same hole placement as the Tosca model which allows for better intonation in every register. In collaboration with Buffet Crampon workshops and internationally renowned clarinetists, Paul Meyer worked on the research project for developing new acoustics, resulting in the Divine clarinet. Research and development is both a rigorous and creative process.
