Sounding two octaves lower than a traditional alto clarinet, the contra-alto clarinet is a staple instrument for symphonic bands, wind ensembles and clarinet choirs. Selmer is the most popular name in contra-alto clarinets.

Featuring a unique body design crafted from dense rosewood, the Selmer contra-alto packs the expected Selmer low clarinet punch but is more covered and warm.

Other major features include and articulated G#, Eb lever and an automatic octave key.

• Articulated G# Keys: Easier transition and trills
• Range to low E-flat
• Adjustable Neck: Offers more flexible tuning options
• Leather Pads w/ Metal Resonators: Perfect seal coupled with greater resonance and projection in lower register
