The new Leblanc line of
clarinets designed by clarinet master Morrie Backun represents the
newest choice for professional clarinets. Backun Barrels are used by
some of the most prestigious clarinetist in the world. Bringing his
expertise to help design this line of clarinets has yielded the most
impressive clarinet choices that we have ever seen.
The
Symphonie (model LB120B) is
the main professional performing model in this line of clarinets.
The clarinet is completely
made in the USA by Leblanc. The Barrels are made in Canada by Backun.
Voicing is done at Backun in Canada and
the project's quality standards are
measured by Morrie Backun himself. This
line of clarinets does not just bear his
name and use his barrels. Morrie is the
chief designer of this line of
clarinets. He kept only 1 key from
Leblanc... and redesigned everything
else.
The
Symphonie model has several unique
features. One, it uses the Backun
Ringless barrels. They provide a very
big and warm tone. The bore is uniquely
designed by Morrie Backun and has
excellent tone and response. The tone
hole chimneys are not a straight taper
but rather have their own bores to
optimize tone projection.
The octave
vent uses a "Voicing Pin" that changes
the direction in which the air escapes
the octave vent. This pin (made from
hard delrin) allows for the air to
escape without hitting the pad. This
translates into a cleaner and clearer
tone in the upper register of the
clarinet. Combined with the Voicing
Grove in the bell (this grove causes a
little air to flow back into the air
stream of the clarinet, making more air
come out of the tone holes and the
register key), this system really
improves tone over the break.
The
Symphonie is also setup to make it a
very worry free clarinet. Every pivot
screw has a set lock screw at the top of
its key post. This screw prevents the
pivot screw from ever backing out. The
clarinet does come with the needed tool
for technicians to loosen this screw
when needed. The Symphonie is also setup
with a specially formulated Valentino
pad the ensures a secure pad seat that
maintains better then most skin pads.
The clarinet
has multiple fine tune adjusting screws
throughout and comes with the wrench
needed to do these adjustments with
ease.
The
Symphone includes 2 of
the Backun Ringless model barrels effectively giving the player 2
completely different playing instrument styles.
