Why I Chose Backun

"After many years of playing a different professional model clarinet, I was planning to purchase the same brand and model. However, when I came across the “Q” clarinet it was a done deal. I also had planned on staying with the same mouthpiece I played for years, and then came across the CG Vocalise clear mouthpiece as my new choice of mouthpiece! I no longer must work as hard to accomplish the sound, articulations, and technique (the pads used are very quiet and key placement is allowing me to play much faster with ease!) I highly recommend Backun and am honored to be a Backun Artist representing this amazing clarinet and additional products made by them!"
