Dual-Use Ligature for Alto Saxophone and B♭Clarinet We've harnessed our own structural technologies todevelop and produce a ligature you can use oncomparably sized alto saxophone and Bb clarinetmouthpieces. It enables the sax and clarinet to bring out their uniquetonal qualities and play to their fullest potential.
FEATURES The Yany SIXS allows the horn to project well not only in chamber music settings but also in concert halls and open outdoor spaces, and alsoreduces the risk of being drowned out by other instruments during ensemble performances. Players are better able to feel the vibrations of the reed, achieve improved control, and produce a resonant voice with stronger core. Gain broader dynamic range with the flexibility to handle a diverse array of musical genres and produce a wealth of tonal colors with richer,deeper, warmer lows, shimmering mids, and easier, relaxed highs.
ROOTS OF THE "Yany SIXS" NAME AND DESIGN [Yany SIXS]"Yany" is from our popular nickname, while "SIXS" is a coined wordderived from the six spaces established between the mouthpiece and reed.
[Design]The SIXS incorporates a unique design with six spatially arranged contact pointsand an integrated Yanagisawa "Y" motif. Four small, gold-plated brass discs stabilize thereed, holding it firmly against the mouthpiece while ensuring full freedom of vibration. Theligature hugs the mouthpiece barrel through four Ebonite spacers. An inverted single-screwmechanism allows uniform tightening through all contact points for excellent response. Theengraved, hexagonal screw head adds an appealing classical touch.
