Behind every Buffet Crampon bass clarinet, there is an ear. Vincent Penot listens, compares, and chooses, until the instrument reveals its full voice. This is where excellence is decided.

Swipe to follow his selection.

These past few months, our studios and workshops have rarely been quiet. Artists, teachers, students… so many of you came to try things out, to talk, sometimes just take your time. What stays with us are these few polaroids, and the memory of every encounter.

In August, we slow down. The studios rest, the workshops hold their breath for the length of a summer.

But nothing’s truly asleep. The instruments are keeping watch, ready to meet your hands again in few days.

To everyone who passed through this year, thank you. We can’t wait to see you again when the new season begins.

Ces derniers mois, nos studios et nos ateliers n’ont pas désempli. Artistes, professeurs, étudiants, passionnés : vous êtes nombreux à être venus jouer, essayer, échanger, parfois prendre le temps. De tout ça, il nous reste ces quelques polaroids, et le souvenir des rencontres.

En août, on ralentit. Les studios se reposent, les ateliers retiennent leur souffle le temps d’un été.

Mais ce n’est qu’une pause. Les instruments veillent, prêts à retrouver vos mains très prochainement.

À toutes celles et ceux qui sont passés cette année, merci. Nous avons hâte de vous retrouver à la rentrée.
