Selmer Paris Prologue Bb Clarinet with Eb Lever
The Prologue clarinet gets a makeover! In order to inspire the young - and young at heart - to play the clarinet, Henri SELMER Paris has designed new features for this model that facilitate learning and progress in clarinet practice and make it the best clarinet for beginners!
What's Behind - Conception
Made in our workshops in Mantes-la-Ville (France), the Prologue has all the positive attributes of a great SELMER Paris clarinet! Its bore offers great sound quality: homogenous and balanced sound in all registers, and its key and tone hole positioning provides excellent pitch accuracy relationships.
In accordance with current pedagogical models that place increasing importance on posture and comfort of play, Henri SELMER Paris has designed new features for the Prologue that facilitate learning and progress in clarinet practice.
The new clarinet is also lighter, with 30 grams less wood! Furthermore, the addition of a ferrule on the upperpart of the barrel makes the barrel/mouthpiece junction more reliable.
This innovative model offers a revolutionary thumb rest, an ergonomic tone hole insert for small hands, reduced instrument weight and an ergonomic register key. The Delta symbol, engraved on the upper body, differentiates this new version from the previous one.
The Prologue adds a touch of whimsy by allowing musicians to personalize their instrument with a choice of six colorful bands for the bell.
