Selmer Paris Supreme Alto Saxophone
The creation of the Supreme embodies the culmination of one century of expertise, combined with a perfectly mastered manufacturing process that lives up to the ambitions of the SELMER company. The Supreme is characterized by a perfectly balanced tuning, infinite sound colors, and a great ease of response. It hides the natural and inherent constraints of the saxophone - the playing limitations are non-existent. Its roundness and projection capacity make it an instrument that is both traditional and resolutely modern.
Birth of a Saxophone
Eight years ago, we set ourselves a challenge: to design the best saxophone ever made. A saxophone that would rise above musical genres. A saxophone that could be adapted to all sorts of music, playing styles and sound types. A saxophone whose ease and obviousness of playing would induce a direct and immediate relationship with sound.
To better free itself from musical genres and imagine this universal instrument, a team of saxophonists of various styles was formed. No acoustic, mechanical, ergonomic or aesthetic detail was overlooked.
After 100 years of innovation, design, and manufacturing of the saxophone, Henri SELMER Paris redefines the modern identity of the alto saxophone with the Supreme.

The refinement and care taken in its manufacture, as well as its entirely corrected ergonomics, reveal an enjoyment and ease of play that has never been seen before.
