1.-Play music that you know well with your own ligature first to create your sound reference in the room where you are testing.

2 .Under the same conditions, change only one parameter or component at a time and test the new ligature for smoothness in transition between registers, consistent volume and its sound quality in the lower, middle, and upper ranges.

3. At the same time, listen for the subtle differences when playing pianissimo and fortissimo passages.

4. Test how easily you can play staccato and articulate throughout the instrument.

5. It is always better to play test with another player who knows your regular sound and can assist you to appreciate how you feel while playing, what you hear when you play and finally what the audience hears.

Try various ligature models because different types of ligatures meet different requirements.

Remember: “The best ligature is the one that fits you”

Musicians frequently ask if the ligature really influence the sound of the instrument. Can a small metal or synthetic piece change the color, the projection or the sound? The answer is YES.

The material (metal or fabric), its density, plating, the point of pressure on the reed and many other factors are all decisive when talking about the color of the sound and its projection.

Metal ligatures are perfect for large concert halls and for soloists that need more sound. Gold plated provides a bigger response and a rounder sound. Fabric ligatures are recommended for small rooms or when looking for a more intimate sound. They are perfect for ensemble works.

Today’s players need more than one ligature since they will need a different kind of ligature depending on their work or the situation they are in, whether the style is jazz or classical.

Every BG Ligature provides a distinct sound for each situation and style of music.

BG Ligatures are hand-made in France and inspected three times to ensure optimal quality.

How to choose your ligature

HOW TO CHOOSE A LIGATUREEach ligature has its own sound benefit

Why does BG only make inverted ligatures?

Sound comes from the vibrations of the reed and mouthpiece and we optimize them by using exclusively “one screw” ligatures. Reeds vibrate from top to bottom thanks to empty canals. Any pressure point on the reed has an effect on the sound. Using screws in contact with the reed alters vibrations.

Metal vs Fabric ligatures

BRIGHT SOUND - Large concert halls - Orchestral works - Solo performances

ROUND SOUND- Small concert halls - Ensemble works & chamber
