Nuvo Clarineo 2.0 Clarinet Kit - Black/Black

The NUVO Clarineo is a clarinet in the key of C and is ideal for young starters ages 4 to 12 years. It is much lighter and smaller than a Bb clarinet which means the finger stretches are shorter and the tone holes smaller. This takes away a lot of the physical challenges of the Bb clarinet while encouraging kids to practice more and develop the skills and enthusiasm they will need when they are ready to step up.

It can give a child up to three years head start on learning the clarinet. Since the fingering is the same, the transition to Bb clarinet is quick and easy when they are ready.

The Clarineo has a rich, mellow tone just like a traditional clarinet and can play 3 octaves fully chromatic. That's enough for Mozarts' Clarinet Concerto!

There is lots of music and learning materials through the WindStars curriculum. The Clarineo is particularly suitable for classroom ensembles playing alongside the jFlute, jSax and jHorn. The instrument is easy and inexpensive to maintain as well as being 100% washable in warm soapy water. This makes them ideal in school programs where children might be sharing instruments.

The Clarineo kit comes with two NUVO synthetic reeds as well as a cane reed. As with all NUVO reed instruments, soprano saxophone and standard Eb clarinet reeds will work.
