The Selmer La Voix II has been introduced as a strong competitor in the intermediate saxophone market. The instrument offers a back-to-basics lighter feel and a very focused sound, as Selmer has trimmed back some of the extraneous features of the original La Voix. The acoustic response of the Selmer LaVoix II saxophones is quick and fluid through all registers, and the neck is specially designed with slight resistance. This combination provides for superior response, and teachers also prefer it for embouchure and air stream development.
The solid red brass construction of the La Voix II helps produce a bigger, richer tone, with more copper in the alloy content. The key design is compact with professional spring tension for quicker facility. Double-braced low C and B keys add strength and stability to the lower bell keys, while the reinforced table arch stabilizes the left-hand pinky cluster, helping to prevent damage while the instrument is in the case. A high F# affords the player full range, and multiple adjusting screws make repairs and adjustments a cinch. Treated leather pads help to fight off those costly trips to the repair shop.
The Selmer La Voix II instruments feature Selmer USA mouthpieces that help to create an even tone, excellent response, and steady intonation. The new, lighter-weight cases thoroughly protect the instruments and offer excellent storage capacity. The standard finish for the alto is clear lacquer on yellow brass, with optional finishes including copper brass, black nickel plate with lacquer keys, and bright silver plate.
The key features of the Selmer La Voix II include: - High F# Key - Double Braced Bell Keys - Traditional Bell Flare - Ribbed Construction - Treated Leather Pads
Overall, the Selmer La Voix II offers a focused and responsive sound, with a back-to-basics design and a range of customizable finishes, making it a strong contender in the intermediate saxophone market.
