Selmer Paris B16PRESENCE Bb Clarinet

The Selmer Paris B16PRESENCE Presence is a professional Bb clarinet designed for serious players who want a focused, projecting sound with modern mechanical precision. It retains the rich core tone and easy response associated with Selmer Paris clarinets while adding extra “ping” for clarity and presence in the hall. Research-driven tone-hole placement and shaping help deliver an exceptionally reliable scale so the added edge does not compromise intonation. Silver-plated keywork and an adjustable thumb support complete a performance-ready package for demanding rehearsal and concert schedules.

In performance, the Presence favors clean articulation, stable pitch across registers, and a centered tone that carries in ensemble textures without forcing. The redesigned key geometry and arm orientations support quick, accurate mechanism feel and comfortable hand position for long services and fast technical passages. Its tuning spec (A=440–442) suits modern orchestral and wind-band standards, and the 66.5 mm barrel provides a familiar reference point for setup choices. This is a strong fit for orchestral and wind ensemble work, chamber music, solo repertoire, pit/studio doubling, and audition preparation. Ideal users include conservatory students, working professionals, and educators who need a clarinet that blends easily yet speaks with clear definition.
