Legere

Légère is a Canadian manufacturer of synthetic reeds for woodwind instruments. Founded in 1998, the brand specialises in alternatives to traditional cane reeds for clarinets, saxophones, oboes and bassoons. Its reeds do not require soaking before playing.

The range includes Signature, European Cut, American Cut and French Cut reeds, with availability varying by instrument. These designs offer different playing responses, while the choice of strengths allows players to select reeds suited to their mouthpiece and playing preferences. Légère is particularly known for its synthetic clarinet and saxophone reeds.

At MyGear’s partner retailers, Légère products are listed between £20 and £150, positioning the range as specialist woodwind consumables rather than complete instruments. The selection includes reeds for soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones, alongside clarinet and double-reed options.
