Eastman Music Company to Distribute Jewel Musical Products Internationally
Eastman Music Company has announced a new international distribution arrangement for Jewel Musical Products’ Expressions ligatures. Eastman will offer the Expressions ligature line to dealers, educators and musicians, with models in stock at Eastman’s Pomona, California, facility and available immediately.
The Expressions ligature line includes signature models developed by Dave Knox of Jewel Music for such artists as Ricardo Morales, Johnathan Wintringham of the International Saxophone Academy and Eddie Daniels. Designed for clarinet and saxophone players, the line is built around Jewel’s focused approach to reed contact, instrument response, and tonal expression.
Ricardo Morales and ISA Expressions ligatures feature Jewel’s Flex Rail design, which promotes even reed response and improved vibration for a projecting, controllable tone. The Eddie Daniels Expressions ligatures use a coated fabric construction, open pocket design and unique rail design intended to enhance reed vibration while supporting a warm, balanced sound with clear projection and responsive articulation.
“We’re excited to partner with Jewel Musical Products and bring their innovative Expressions ligatures to our dealer network,” said Joe Montgomery, wind accessories product manager at Eastman Music Company. “These ligatures deliver fantastic responsiveness and tonal core for developing players and professionals alike.”
