After the
introduction of Superial, "DC", and
Classique in the 1990's, we began to conceive of a model which would
add a new and different dimension to the  tonal
universe of
our reeds.
This reed was born following extensive conversations and correspondence
between Tom Alexander and the legendary late, great Jazz saxophone
genius Michael Brecker beginning some years ago. Without Michael's
gracious and invaluable feedback following experimentation with
different prototype designs, this new reed simply would not have come
into existence. It was a singular honor to have been guided by
this greatly missed, phenomenal musical spirit and exceptional human
being.
NY was also thoroughly field tested by subjecting it to many months of
on the job playing in the concert and tour performances of several of
our World Artists who gave it their seal of approval and use it as
their primary reed today.
The result is a new reed made with our same high grade S. France cane,
yet a redesigned tip and profile which produces a big and bold sound,
full response throughout the registers and the type of vibrant, solid
tone traditionally associated with that of the New York music
scene. The tip is somewhat harder than Superial DC which gives it a
sustaining power, especially in the high end of the horn.
We welcome you to debut our new work, Alexander N Y.
