Vandoren M30 Lyre Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece

Flexible response, round tone and exceptional sound quality.

The Vandoren M30 Lyre Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece offers outstanding flexibility, tonal roundness and refined sound quality. Based on the popular 5RV Lyre design but featuring a larger tip opening and longer facing, the M30 Lyre delivers enhanced breadth and projection while maintaining control and clarity.

This mouthpiece is highly versatile and produces a centred, resonant tone across all registers. It responds beautifully in both orchestral and solo settings, making it a trusted choice for advancing and professional clarinetists.

The M30 Lyre works best with Vandoren #3–#4 reeds, allowing players to achieve optimal balance between response, control and tonal richness.
