The Chedeville Kanter Opera Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece
Kanter Opera Demonstration
FROM JIM KANTER:
“Clarinetists who will love this mouthpiece run the full gamut. It’s perfect for orchestra players worldwide looking for the depth and warmth without sacrificing the ability to project in large acoustic settings. That said, mouthpieces with these qualities are also very popular with chamber players and soloists playing in more intimate acoustic and musical environments. In other words, it will be very highly sought-after in today’s clarinet world.” – Jim Kanter
Asked to describe the sound of the new Kanter ‘Opera’ model, Jim said:
“Buttery warmth, point and flexibility. It has everything.”



“If you are having a hard time choosing a mouthpiece please answer our 6 questions. I often encourage people to do a trial and try several mouthpieces. We are here to help because we know that when you get the right mouthpiece for you there are no limits on what you can do.”

We start with rod rubber, then we manufacture the mouthpieces from beginning to end in our factory in Savannah Georgia using state of the art CNC machines and expert mouthpiece craftsmen and women on the crucial and indispensable hand work.

Consistency is our obsession. That is why we have the most extensive series of mandatory measurements and play testing in the industry.


At Chedeville our goal is to create products that allow you to express yourself without any limits. One of the most important things to a player is the setup, the combination of the mouthpiece and reed. The mouthpiece is the first thing that makes your sound or your voice. We encourage you to embrace our “Life Without Limits” philosophy. We have made a mouthpiece which will not hinder you in any way and allow you to achieve all of your musical goals and beyond.
