ARIOSO CLARINET IN "A", ASA-105
The Arioso A clarinet will amaze you with its playing and tuning qualities. The normally stuffy right hand clarion tones on other A clarinets are a thing of the past with the Arioso A. All the right hand clarion tones, especially the Bell B, are super quick in response and have a resonant, liquid quality. The upper clarion tones are not only full, round, and stable in dynamic changes, but also have none of the undertoning problems so common to many A clarinets on today's market. The transition from the second to the third register is seamless, making embouchure/air pressure exchanges and half-holing no longer necessary. Finally, when you play the Arioso A clarinet in the upper register and push the dynamic level, the sound will get louder without spreading in shape, sagging in pitch, or brightening in color. Evenness of resistance and stability of pitch, color, and shape in dynamic changes make this the best and most secure phrasing A clarinet available anywhere at any price!
