Bb SOPRANO CLARINET
In celebration of our 20th anniversary, Antigua is proud to announce the
launch of the Antigua-Backun wooden clarinet. The creation of this instrument
has been a joint project between Antigua Winds and renowned woodwind
designer, Morrie Backun. As Morrie states, “This is a state of the art clarinet
showing what happens when you bring together two of the most sophisticated
manufacturing facilities in the world and a mutual desire to make the best
product possible.”
This clarinet starts with premium grade grenadilla wood, properly aged in
controlled settings. It is within the Backun facility in Vancouver, Canada
that the wood is turned, bored and machined to exacting tolerances using
the most advanced machinery and skilled personnel. These bodies, bells and
barrels then undergo careful hand-finishing work and inspection by Backun
technicians.
The finished wooden bodies then travel to Antigua’s state of the art facility
where precision manufacturing technology is used to produce the keys. Skilled
artisans hand fit posts, rings, rods, springs, and keys to ensure that each
instrument performs optimally. Black Valentino pads are used to create a
perfect seal, creating a clarinet that stands up to today’s demands and will
meet tomorrow’s expectations.
