The Black Diamond family continues to expand and provides the clarinetist with a dark, yet colorful sound.

“The BD5 is a mouthpiece with a remarkable blend of coveted qualities. It combines a beautiful balance of depth and clarity with powerful projection and with immediate response.” – Jon Manasse, Performing Artist

“The Vandoren BD5 13 Series is my new mouthpiece of choice. It provides an unparalleled focus, depth, and coloristic flexibility along with ample power to project in orchestra and exquisite delicacy for the most intimate chamber music.” – John Yeh, Chicago Symphony Orchestra
