ALPHA Bb CLARINET
From Beginning Band to Marching Band, The Backun Alpha Bb Clarinet is the result of years of research and development and the desire to give student clarinetists an affordable instrument that won’t restrict their development. Made from a proprietary synthetic material chosen for its excellent tonal qualities, the Alpha also gives professional players an instrument that they can confidently use for performances where a wooden instrument might not be appropriate.
Each silver-plated Alpha Bb Clarinet comes with one (1) Alpha 65mm Barrel, one (1) Alpha Bell, and a Mouthpiece Pack including a Mouthpiece, Ligature and Mouthpiece Cap.

Why Heid?
The woodwind family is filled with a wide range of instruments - flutes, piccolos, clarinets, oboes, bassoons, and saxophones – and they produce their sound through an exhaled air stream on a sharp edge. The woodwind family is extremely versatile, offering a range of sounds and tones to accompany any music genre. Heid Music prides itself on its selection of woodwind instruments from notable brands such as Yamaha, Selmer, Buffet Crampon, Leblanc, Trevor James, Muramatsu, Powell Sonare, and Jupiter.
A majority of woodwind instruments use a reed to help create their sound. There are single reed and double reed woodwind instruments. Single reed instruments include clarinets and saxophones, whereas double reed instruments include oboes and bassoons.
Heid Music offers woodwind instruments for a musician at any stage – beginner, intermediate, and professional.
