Lumière Basset A Clarinet
If Only Mozart Were Alive to Hear This
The Lumière Basset Clarinet in A is a marvel of modern engineering, precision manufacturing and stunning craftsmanship. Extending the clarinet range down to low C, it is modular in build, allowing the artist to change lower joints, converting their Backun A Clarinet into a Backun Basset Clarinet and vice versa, depending on performance needs. The Lumière Basset Lower Joint can be purchased separately, for those who already own a Backun Custom A Clarinet.
