Buffet Crampon Festival A Clarinet
Buffet Crampon Festival A Clarinet. Rich, Powerful, and Designed for the Modern Performer
The Buffet Crampon Festival A Clarinet is the perfect companion to the Festival Bb, offering seamless compatibility for players who demand excellence across both instruments. Designed in 1987 with input from world-renowned clarinetists Jacques Lancelot, Guy Deplus, and Michel Arrignon, the Festival model is built for modern musicians, soloists, and teachers alike, able to tackle a vast range of repertoire with ease.
Belonging to Buffet’s prestigious R13 bore family, the Festival A clarinet delivers a rich, powerful, and fluid tonal colour, with superb projection and highly reliable tuning across the range. Crafted from carefully selected, unstained African blackwood, the Festival offers a naturally resonant and deep sound that only this premium material can produce.
Built with professional features throughout, including silver-plated keywork, an adjustable thumb rest, and a combination of GT, leather, and cork pads for optimal sealing and longevity, the Festival A is an instrument designed for serious players seeking expressive freedom and technical excellence.
