Buffet Crampon Gala Bb & A Clarinet

In 2020, Buffet Crampon introduced a new instrument surpassing the high expectations set by previous models: the GALA clarinet.

Its design takes full advantage of the latest research and is characterized by rich harmonics and an overall balance of the instrument’s range. This new professional clarinet is equipped with wooden chimneys (dalbergia melanoxylon) and leather pads. Finishing touches of black nickel-plated rings, medallion and ligature adorn the instrument with elegance.

The Gala is available in Bb and A; it also has an optional Eb lever. The traditional “pochette” case makes a showpiece of our new opus, offering professional musicians and passionate amateurs a new clarinet built by professional artisans in France.
