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 reeds, Alexander
