The newly designed Prelude PCL-111S and PCL-111SE Bb Clarinets are built with the beginning clarinetist in mind. It provides a warm, focused tone that is pleasing to the ear, while the Prelude’s best-in-class intonation aids the training of developing ears. The unique keywork of the PCL11S/SE encourages correct, comfortable, and natural hand position due to its positioning for smaller hands. Even the mouthpiece was revamped to offer the quick and easy response that the student clarinetist needs. Each Prelude clarinet is built to stringent standards and is play tested and adjusted by professional technicians in the USA.
