Description

After 100 years of innovation, design, and manufacturing of the saxophone, Henri SELMER Paris redefines the modern identity of the tenor saxophone with the Supreme.
The tenor Supreme achieves the feat of surpassing the flexibility and sensation of lightness found in historic models and combining those features with the precision and exactness of pitch found in modern ones. It is both powerful and capable of infinite refinement. It allows for a an impressive power or a very expressive lyricism. Its dynamic possibilities go from a barely audible whisper to a wailing scream.
Reduced key lift heights and smaller circle diameters yield better mechanical efficiency. It has a socket with three clamp points, a moving nickel-silver clamping ring, and a right-hand adjustment lever. The tenor Supreme incorporates the aesthetic qualities of the alto, such as the engraving and fluidity of the key design and guards.
This instrument gives the impression of lightness while maintaining power, roundness, richness, flexibility, and
precise tuning.
