Vandoren 56 Rue Lepic Bb-Clarinet 3.5

Bb Clarinet Reed

Named after the address of the Vandoren headquarters, the 56 Rue Lepic series is the latest addition to the well-established range of Vandoren reeds. Designed from thicker cane with a heel taper very similar to German-style reeds, the 56 rue Lepic emits a rich, centred, and extremely pure sound while providing maximum stability and a quick response in all registers.

Strength gradations are smaller and more specific, resulting in reeds that are very consistent.

Good reeds

Emma H. 24.02.2014

I bought these to try as I currently use Vandoren V12s. I found them in general very similar, however did find it slightly more difficult to articulate using these in comparison. The reeds I received were all rather consistent, which was a nice surprise - I don't know whether I was lucky or whether they are all like this?!

The reeds are nice sounding, big and fat sound. The minus is the response which is by my opinion a bit slower then on other Vandoren reeds which occurs due to too rapid drying of the reed.

Excellent Reed

Denis_CRO86 03.02.2026

I teach and play professionally clarinet. Using at this time Playnick Tosca Puccini on a Selmer Privilege.

At first I was very impressed with the reed quality but after using them for more than over 5 years I feel I get less consistency from one box. Best setup was with my BD5 and BD4. Now with the Playnick Tosca i gravitate more playing on V12 or DAddario Reserve both at strenght 3,5.

Still recommend, and with the V12 the Rue Lepic are the best that you can get from Vandoren at this time.

Gute Blätter - mit dem richtigen Mundstück

Steffen153 09.03.2010

Die Blätter mit dem deutschesten Klang der Marke Vandoren. Der Schnitt dieser Blätter ähnelt denen der Black Master-Blätter. Sie sind sehr stabil in der Höhe, neigen aber dazu ein wenig hell zu klingen. Fallen nach meinem Empfinden ein klein wenig stärker aus als die Classic-Blätter.

Ich spiele dies Blätter auf einer Vandoren M30 von Seggelke (angepasst für deutsche Klarinette), allerdings ist der Unterschied zwischen der "französischen" M30 und der von Seggelke marginal bis nicht vorhanden (der Zapfen wurde um etwa zwei mm. verlängert und der Kork auf eine Wurlitzer-Bohrung angepasst), von daher kann ich die Blätter zu diesem Mundstück empfehlen.

Nach meinem Geschmack insbesondere für hallige Räume gut geeignet, in trockneren Räumen spiele ich eher die Classic. Als Stärke empfiehlt sich in der Kombination mit einer M30 die 3-3.5. Als Blattbefestigung scheint (subjektiv) eine Schraube (ich nutze die Vandoren Leather) bei diesen Blättern besser geeignet zu sein als eine Schnur (bei den Classic von Vandoren funktioniert es genau anders herum besser.

Alles in allem wirklich anständige und hervorragend verarbeitete Blätter. Die Qualität ist wie bei allen Blättermarken schwankend, die Ausbeute liegt bei etwa 70- 80 % spielbarer und etwa 10 % konzertgeeigneter Blätter.
