Yamaha Bb Clarinet - YCL-CSVR - E
The Yamaha CSVR-E Bb Clarinet is the redesigned version of the widely acclaimed CSV clarinet and was introduced in 2015. The Yamaha Custom VR clarinets have been carefully refined to give players unrivalled freedom of expression. A number significant changes have been made to the instrument’s design allowing Yamaha to deliver a clarinet that meets clarinetists’ desires for a higher standard of clarinet.
The ergonomics are refined by making the C#/G# key longer. The touch and playability have been greatly improved. The thicker silver key plating and durable leather pads further add to the instrument’s rich, luxurious tone.
The Yamaha CSVR clarinet is the counterpart of the Yamaha SEVR clarinet and the two differ from each other due to the design of the bore (similar to the RC and R13 of Buffet Crampon).
The CSVR has a narrower bore and smaller tone holes and taper than the SEVR. It offers more resistance and is characterized by a clear, bright and focused tone with a lot of projection. It stands out in evenness of sound, accurate intonation and response.
With the CSVR, Yamaha once again shows that it can absolutely compete with other established clarinet brands. The CSVR is a serious rival to the Buffet Crampon R13/RC and the Selmer Présence clarinets.
