Description

This clarinet is one of Buffet Crampons historic models. Created in 1955 by Robert Carrée, the R13 clarinet was a big hit in the United States and still meets with unprecedented success. Its tone is focused and rich, and it is powerful in all registers. Its flexibility lends itself to all repertoires: symphonies or chamber music, soloists, teachers, military bands, students or amateurs.

This particular instrument was made in the mid 1970s, right in the heart of Buffet's golden era. With the higher quality of materials that were available at the time, this instrument is very stable and has a gorgeous, warm and centered tone. It would be an excellent choice for an aspiring student who's looking to upgrade to a world renowned model, and professional instrument.
