Vandoren Bb Clarinet V-21 Reeds 4.5 bring warmth, depth, and an immediate response to your clarinet playing. Combining the shape of the 56 rue lepic reed with the V12 profile, this design helps make every register accessible while maintaining an even, rich tone. This CR8045 box contains ten reeds in size 4.5.

A combination built for presence and response

The V21 pairs two distinctive Vandoren design elements: the 56 rue lepic shape and the V12 profile. Its unfiled construction and thick spine contribute to a responsive reed suited to different playing styles, with warmth and depth throughout the instrument's range.

Move between registers with confidence

For passages with large interval leaps, V21 is designed to respond efficiently while preserving an even, rich tone. Its immediate response and tonal presence support performances that call for clear transitions across registers.
