The Pocket Clarinet is the latest addition to the existing range of Prodige student instruments. This surprising instrument is the result of 3 years’ research by the *Laboratoire Interface Acoustique Musique et Facture Instrumentale (LIAMFI), a laboratory set up in 2017 jointly between Buffet Crampon and the **Laboratoire de Mécanique et d’Acoustique.
It will enable the youngest music learners to practise on a real single-reed woodwind instrument, where the sound is produced by a Bb clarinet mouthpiece and resonates in a body made of Mozambique blackwood (Dalbergia melanoxylon).

Particular care has been taken in the design of the bore and tone holes to ensure a balanced, well-tuned sound throughout the range. The Prodige Pocket Clarinet is light and easy to handle. It is equipped with an adjustable thumb rest to optimise stability while playing and to allow children to familiarise themselves with the feel for when they graduate to their future Bb clarinet.
