The SELMER Privilege A Clarinet is a premium instrument cherished by professional musicians for its exceptional tuning stability and its great adaptability to all acoustics (opera, symphony, band, chamber, studio). Thanks to its perfectly tempered medium register (E, F, F#, G), it offers a bright and homogeneous sound across the entire range.

Unlike many clarinets, the Privilege does not require corrective fingerings to play in tune, even for traditionally tricky low notes such as E and F. This allows musicians to focus on musical expression rather than technical adjustments.

The SELMER Privilege A Clarinet is made in France with high-quality materials. It features a body, barrels, and bell made of natural ebony, which gives it a warm and rich sound. The keywork is made of silver-plated nickel silver, an alloy of copper, zinc, and nickel, and the pads are white leather with a metal resonator in the low register and white Gore-Tex for the rest of the body.

The Privilege is equipped with a standard Boehm system with 17 keys and 6 rings, as well as a left-hand Eb lever. The steel needle springs and precision screw-type mechanism ensure a quick and accurate response, while the fine two-tone nickel silver rings, plated with gold and matte black chrome, add a touch of elegance.

The SELMER Privilege A Clarinet comes with two biconical barrels of 65.5 and 66.5 mm, common to the Bb clarinet. Weighing 825 grams, this high-end instrument offers optimal ergonomics and playing comfort for the most demanding musicians.

In summary, the SELMER Privilege A Clarinet is an instrument of exceptional quality, offering remarkable tuning stability, adaptability to all acoustics, and a homogeneous sound throughout its range. Made in France with high-quality materials, it is ideal for professional musicians seeking an instrument that is both elegant and high-performing.
