Nuvo ClarineoDescription
The NUVO Clarinéo is a clarinet in the key of C and is ideal for young starters ages 4 to 12 years. It is much lighter and smaller than a Bb clarinet which means the finger stretches are shorter and the tone holes smaller. This takes away a lot of the physical challenges of the Bb clarinet while encouraging kids to practice more and develop the skills and enthusiasm they will need when they are ready to step up. It can give a child up to three years head start on learning the clarinet. Since the fingering is the same, the transition to Bb clarinet is quick and easy when they are ready.
The Clarinéo has a rich, mellow tone just like a traditional clarinet and can play 3½ octaves fully chromatic. That’s enough for Mozarts’ Clarinet Concerto!
There is lots of music and learning materials on WindStars and the Clarinéo is particularly suitable for classroom ensembles playing alongside the jFlute and jSAX.
The Clarinéo kit comes with two NUVO synthetic reeds as well as a cane reed. As with all NUVO reed instruments standard Eb clarinet reeds will work. You may also want to try the synthetic reed by Légère which fits all Nuvo instruments.
The instrument is easy and inexpensive to maintain as well as being 100% washable in warm soapy water. This makes them ideal in school programs where children might be sharing instruments.

Nuvo jFluteDescription
The jFlute is the perfect first flute choice for ages 4 to 10. It plays fully chromatically with standard flute fingering down to low D. It can be easily upgraded with our jFlute Upgrade Kit. which includes a straight head joint and C foot joint. The jFlute comes with the patented Firstnote lip plate as well as the standard lip plate.
During early 2019 we upgraded the Nuvo flute to include a number of exciting improvements. This includes improving the feel and performance of the springs as well as the addition of silicone touch pads for the keys. This gives a comfortable feel under the fingers and avoids any possible nickel allergy problems.
We also improved the jFlute head joint by replacing the curved head with the new innovative “donut” head joint. The “donut” is a neat solution that still shortens the reach while keeping the embouchure hole in line with the keys. This helps young starters to keep the flute balanced while also making it much easier to set up the flute for each lesson. You will be surprised and thrilled by the resonant tone from the “donut”.
The new jFlute 2.0 also includes key extensions to help small fingers and a brand new case which is smaller and easier to carry for the young flautist!
