These reeds are produced from premium grade cane for consistent response and playability, as opposed to the standard cane used on the normal Mitchell Lurie in boxes of 10. The Premium Lurie also have a thin tip for ease of play and quick response and articulation. The Premium Lurie are Filed for flexibility and fast response, more cane is removed from the shoulders compared to the unfiled cut of the standard Lurie.
Mitchell Lurie was a clarinet virtuoso who died in 2009, he was famed both for high-calibre performances of classical music and as a solo player with Hollywood's RKO studio orchestras recording music in the great Hollywood years of film. Apparently the composer Leonard Bernstein called him 'the premier clarinettist in motion picture music, and indeed in the world'.

Exactly what I wanted 1st class service.
Just good quality and consistent reads.
Good reeds very consistent all playable.
I was a hard to convert Vandoren user. I was recommended these and now would not wish to use another. Bright and very responsive. I would suggest trying these.
I find these to be very good for the playing I do with a trad jazz band. The flexibility of the tip plus the thickness of the lay is just right for me.
These reeds suit my English clarinet and Weinberg mouthpiece admirably. Tone, dynamic range and response is very good.
the first reed I took out of the box performed very well
I have not tried any of the the others but will do at a later date
Clarinet reeds, have used one and need to go up a strength. As I've not played for a while I wanted a soft one to begin with
Better strength for my playing
More consistent than Vandorens.
