Description
They owe their name to the Kansas City musicians union “Local 627”, of which the famous Charlie Parker was a member at just 15 years old. In honor of these pioneers, who revolutionized music by leaving us a universal legacy, we have put their name on our Jazz line.
Willis Music is proud to share that these soprano saxophone reeds are one of the most popular models of reeds. With their deep jazz history, these reeds are exactly what either up-and-coming Jazz musicians or already professional Jazz musicians need. The Jazz Local 627 reed for soprano saxophone are conceived as a Jazz reed from the crop itself, the raw material used comes from plantations that have natural attributes and a cultivation with specific techniques that achieve a more elastic and vibrant reed, characteristics that are accentuated by the type of cut. It is something that the musician will immediately notice. Its elastic scraping gives them a brighter sound and a quick response.
