After the popularity that the Black Diamond BD5 has gained in the clarinet world, Vandoren decided to add two more models to the Black Diamond series, the BD4 and the BD7.
The Vandoren BD4 is a great flexible mouthpiece that offers a full and rich sound. This mouthpiece is particularly well known by its warm and dark tone.
Compared to the BD5, the BD4 has a
very slightly larger tip opening increasing the overall projection and response
of the clarinet.
Vandoren has
designed the 13 series range specifically for those clarinettists in need of a
A440 pitched mouthpiece. All the 13 series mouthpieces also come with the
Profile 88 beak, which refers to the shape of the beak of the mouthpiece
giving to the player a more comforting mouth position. In comparison with the
traditional mouthpiece, the Profile 88
has a longer beak and smother shaped transition to the chamber.
