Chedeville® has introduced the new “Cinema” Bb Clarinet mouthpiece model designed with legendary Hollywood studio musician and famed mouthpiece maker James Kanter. The Chedeville Kanter Cinema Clarinet mouthpiece has a beautiful, warm sound while being very flexible and will work very well for a variety of settings. 

Following a long and successful career in the Hollywood studios, where he played clarinet on literally thousands of movie soundtracks, James Kanter became further internationally renown for his unique clarinet mouthpiece designs.

“This is a sublime mouthpiece,” said Jim Kanter. “The mouthpiece is designed by me and then perfected in the immaculate, incredibly accurate equipment that Chedeville uses. So far everyone who’s tested it agrees that this is a sublime mouthpiece. It’s a mouthpiece that stands in the middle of tip openings and facing designs. It’s a mouthpiece that will work very, very well for a variety of things,” he continued. “The idea that my name will be associated with Chedeville means a great deal to me because Chedeville is a very famous, well established, and richly respected brand name for clarinet mouthpieces. When Jody Espina bought Chedeville, I badgered him for about a year to make me blanks. Now they supply me with what is, without a doubt, the best mouthpiece making material I’ve ever had in the almost 50 years I’ve been making mouthpieces.” 

Jody Espina, President and owner of Chedeville, said, “Jim is on the top as far as what he does, his knowledge of curves, his accuracy in what he makes. Jim uses the word sublime, to describe the Kanter Cinema mouthpiece, and that’s exactly 

the perfect word. When you play something that is just so good, it’s hard to describe, but it’s sublime. I am finding that this one mouthpiece, the Kanter Cinema, appeals to more players than any other mouthpiece I have come across. I feel this is a great point in my mouthpiece career to learn from Jim Kanter. Jim has been really gracious with me in imparting his knowledge, helping us learn more. I’m really proud and very grateful to Jim for doing this project with us.” 

The new Chedeville Kanter Cinema Clarinet mouthpieces are manufactured from beginning to end at the JodyJazz/Chedeville factory in Savannah, Georgia. The company starts with its proprietary Chedeville hard rubber and then crafts the mouthpieces using state of the art CNC machines. Finally, the crucial and indispensable hand work is performed by expert mouthpiece craftsmen. In order to achieve Jim Kanter’s vision of a more subtle and understated look, the engravings on the mouthpiece have been left unpainted. 

The new Chedeville Kanter Cinema Clarinet mouthpiece has an MSRP of $350.00 and is available now.
