Leather Mutes by Emma Alter

Saraband Music is now a stockist for leather mutes by Emma Alter. These three-pronged historical mutes are proving popular among early music ensembles and orchestras, as well as with modern players.

Orchestras using these mutes include: Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the Gabrieli Consort and Players, English Baroque Soloists, Academy of Ancient Music, Australian Brandenburg Orchestra and many more.

Players have described the mutes as:

"so good I'd like to eat it"

"the most beautiful sounding leather mute I've played with"

"the mute I've been waiting for"

Emma Alter also makes a modern mute which stays on the instrument. These are available on special order only through Saraband Music. The three pronged mutes are kept in stock.
