Légère Signature reeds oboe medium-hard DROAGMH

Signature American Scrape

Légère introduces the latest innovation: synthetic American Scrape Signature oboe reeds

With respect to American to European scrape there are differences in both playing style and aesthetic features.
In terms of aesthetics or the appearance of the reed, American shaving reeds have a longer shaving than European reeds. Also, although not perceptible to the naked eye, the ratio between the center and the sides varies in the Gubiado.

Beyond these technical differences, the main difference is the playing, i.e. how each works. The idea behind the American Signature oboe reed is to allow the player to play with a minimum of embouchure tension/manipulation while maintaining timbre and sound quality. Classic European reeds, on the other hand, require a bit more manipulation/strain on the embouchure/muscle. They also sound somewhat different which may make one style more appealing than the other to the individual oboist.

Crafted to meet the highest standards of professional players, these reeds offer an ideal combination of performance, durability, and tonal quality. Whether for orchestral performance, solo work, or education, they provide a true alternative to cane - without compromise.

These new reeds are produced using a newly developed manufacturing process. Légère has implemented major engineering upgrades, including the installation of brand-new CNC machinery and a completely revised cutting technique for shaping reed blades. These improvements have led to dramatic gains in product consistency and overall quality across all models.
