Brancher - SHR Ligature semi-rigide Saxophone Soprano

The Brancher France SHR ligature for soprano saxophone delivers the clarity of articulation musicians are looking for, without restricting the harmonic richness of the ebonite mouthpiece. It renders every nuance with a technical honesty that transforms the sensation of playing.

This acoustic signature is the result of an ingenious hybrid construction. The double nylon weave provides a supple yet firm base, moulded to the shape of the mouthpiece for an ideal seal. On top of this, the metal pressure plate and its two longitudinal rails act as a precise point of contact on the reed. This pressure distribution releases the natural vibration of the reed, giving an air column that seems wider and more even throughout the instrument's entire range.

Equally at home with the velvety smoothness of a jazz ballad or the straightforward attack of a classical or modern repertoire, this ligature adapts to the diversity of musical expressions. Its semi-rigid nature guarantees stability in all circumstances. Supplied with a protective cap, it's a reliable everyday ally for a soprano who's always ready to sing.
