Vincent Penot, principal bass clarinet at the Opéra national de Paris, professor at the Conservatoire de Paris Cnsmdp, test player for Buffet Crampon’s low clarinets, puts our instruments to the test, straight from our workshops.

In hand: the Tosca bass clarinet, fitted with the low-C extension, also available for the Prestige. Remove it, and you’re playing 90% of the classical, romantic and 20th-century repertoire with the same bore, the same fingerings. Add it back, and the full range opens up.

Two instruments. One clarinet.

What if your first clarinet was a Buffet Crampon?

Born from a French-German synergy, the E12F student clarinet combines ease of play, reliability, and intonation, three essential qualities for every stage of learning.

As autumn settles in and a new season begins, we look back on the musicians who passed through our Mantes-la-Ville workshops these past weeks. From all around the world, artists came for instrument selection, adjustments, and to leave their signature on our 200th anniversary wall. Some even picked up their instruments to play for us, captured on film for this occasion.

To all our musicians, artists, teachers, and to the entire Buffet Crampon community: welcome back, and here’s to a wonderful new season.

A hundred parts, each shaped with the same care. Together, they find their voice.

It takes a luthier's skill, and all the time it demands, for a hundred parts to become one instrument.

Buffet Crampon Archives, 1922

"A whole orchestra, bound in paper.”

These pages have turned the color of old brass. Cornets, helicons, bassoons, clarinets… each one engraved with the quiet confidence of a house that already knew what mastery meant. The ink has faded, the folds have cracked, yet something still hums beneath the dust: the ghost of a Paris workshop, still playing.
