Buffet Crampon Tosca Eb, Bb & A Clarinet

The elegant Buffet Crampon Tosca Clarinet, designed by Michel Arrignon, is the fruit of extensive experience and innovation.

Endowed with rich harmony and a unique sonority, the Tosca clarinet’s timbre and fullness are exceptional. Its ease of response and flexibility and its high level of comfort are qualities that distinguish it from other clarinets, and that constitutes the very essence of this clarinet, part of the R13 bore family. It is available in Bb, A and Eb, in grenadilla wood or in the Greenline composite material.

Greenline

Buffet Crampon developed the Greenline series in 1994 as a way to produce a professional instrument that can withstand variations in atmospheric conditions (temperature, humidity), and reduce the manufacturing impact on the African grenadilla wood population. The body is constructed of 95% grenadilla wood and 5% polycarbonate fiber and epoxy resin. This gives it a much higher resistance to the effects of temperature and humidity changes, especially preventing any cracking.
