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 using 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 consistant.
