Chedeville has announced the launch of a completely new range of classical clarinet mouthpieces called the Chedeville “Umbra” Series. The new Chedeville Umbra Clarinet Series was designed and developed in collaboration with acclaimed International Soloist, co-founder of RZ Clarinets, and newest Chedeville Artist Endorser, Milan Rericha.
“The Chedeville Umbra Clarinet mouthpiece creates a beautiful dark sound full of rich colors,” said Jody Espina, President of JodyJazz/Chedeville. “The Umbra is darker in sound color than our ELITE model and also has less resistance, a combination that is seldom found in a clarinet mouthpiece. Because the mouthpiece doesn’t add resistance, you will have no limits in dynamics, colors, or articulation.”
“Working with Milan Rericha reminds me of working Kirk Whalum or Michael Brecker, artists at the pinnacle of their profession and who were also the most incredible humans that I’ve ever met,” Jody continued. “I’m extremely proud that Milan has chosen play the Umbra and very proud of this new mouthpiece we’ve created together.”
The new Chedeville Umbra Clarinet mouthpieces are available in a comprehensive selection of tip openings (1/100th mm): F00 (95), F0 (100), F1 (105), F2 (110), F3 (115), F4 (120), F5 (125), F6 (130).
The mouthpieces have an MSRP of $350.00
