Product Information

The Selmer Presence Evolution Bb Clarinet is Selmer’s universal professional clarinet. The new Presence clarinet is Selmer’s first truly fresh clarinet design for quite some years. The Evolution system comprises a resin sleeve through the interior of the top joint providing optimal stability and protection against moisture.

There has been a great deal of research and design behind each and every manufacturing process and decision. Positioning and sizing of tone holes, the shape of the internal bore and the layout of the keywork has all been analysed, adapted and modified to represent a new chapter in the Selmer clarinet story. The Presence offers a balanced, even and wonderfully rich tone across it's whole range. The lower register in particular is extremely warm and broad in sound and the tuning across the instrument is superb. 

Entering a busy area of the market the Presence will be judged against the popular Buffet R13 and RC and alongside the increasingly successful Yamaha custom series. Teachers and players alike are now spoilt for choice at this price point, only time will tell which models come out on top...it's great to see Selmer now also have a serious contender in the mix. 

Specifications: 

  • Specially selected Grenadilla wood with the Evolution resin sleeving through the top joint
  • The Presence is fitted with Gore-Tex and Valentino pads that offer a long lasting durable and water resistant finish

Selmer Presence Evolution - Bb Clarinet Reviews

Anonymous review via Feefo  -  2025-07-07

Great clarinet, plays with really good intonation and the key work is solid. The case it comes with is beautiful, however could do with outside compartments. The quality definitely is comparable to my Selmer saxophone and is at a premium level.

Excellent quality and stunning Clarinet. Item was well packaged and arrived safely and on time. I look forward to shopping again with dawkes music. An all round excellent experience. A. Riccio

This clarinet has excellent intonation in all registers particularly when played with a Selmer Focus or Concept mouthpiece, a Vandoren Traditional or V12 reed and Rovner ligature. Excellent note production in all registers as there is little resistance to sounding when blown either soft or hard. Too good for my amateur abilities where the Seles Prologue proves to be somewhat better value for money.
