Klose BE12 Wood Clarinet
Hyacinthe Klose was a professor at the Paris Conservatory
of Music and in 1843 he and Auguste Buffet adapted and
improved the Boehm fingering system for the clarinet.
This reorganized fingering system remains popular today.
With these technical developments in key-work, improvements
in the dynamic range and intonation, the clarinet
has found a place and has become a
prominent instrument in the genres of
symphonic, operatic. band, chamber
and solo work.
The Klose clarinets were designed for
the market in the USA and offer
award-winning features such as
beautiful and mellow sound quality,
good intonation, functional reliability
and perfect workmanship at a very
reasonable price. Each Klose clarinet
has specific final undercutting and
bore adjustments made and is play
tested before delivery. All Klose
clarinets come with a high quality
case, mouthpiece, ligature, mouthpiece
cap, swab, cork grease and a 6
year limited lifetime warranty on parts
and workmanship.
