Hot Swing is a natural reed manufactured by Rigotti in France and designed specifically for G clarinets. Known locally as the "Blue Band" reed, it is widely used in Turkish, Greek, and Balkan folk music due to its soft response and easy playability.
The No.1 strength offers a comfortable balance between easy playability and tonal control. It allows for effortless sound production while providing improved articulation, stability, and dynamic control compared to softer reeds. Each box contains 12 reeds. Rigotti reeds are produced from cane grown in the company's own fields in France and processed entirely in-house to ensure consistent quality.
