A great instrument changes everything. The right saxophone, clarinet or flute does not just make playing easier — it makes playing more expressive, more rewarding and more musical in ways that no amount of technique can fully compensate for on a lesser instrument. Serious players know this. The moment you pick up a truly exceptional instrument, you understand immediately what you have been missing.

At Wind Instrument Proshop we carry a carefully selected range of professional and advanced instruments — chosen not because they are the most popular or the most heavily marketed, but because they are genuinely exceptional and genuinely available in Calgary. Every instrument we sell has been set up and inspected by our Straubinger-certified, Muramatsu-certified repair technician before it leaves our hands. Every purchase comes with the expertise to help you choose correctly and the ongoing service to keep your instrument performing at its best for years to come.

Muramatsu Flutes — The world's bestselling professional flute maker, crafting instruments in Japan since 1923. Trusted by orchestral principals, conservatory students and professional performers worldwide not because of marketing but because of what the instruments actually do. Every Muramatsu flute is set up by our Muramatsu-certified technician before sale

Backun Musical Services — Canada's own world-class clarinet maker, handcrafted in Burnaby, British Columbia from sustainably sourced grenadilla and cocobolo. Morrie Backun has spent decades refining the science of clarinet making — his barrels, mouthpieces and instruments are trusted by orchestral principals, conservatory teachers and professional clarinetists worldwide. Backun are made to a standard of craftsmanship that reflects decades of obsessive attention to acoustic detail. For players who want a professional clarinet made in Canada, by a Canadian maker who has dedicated his career to getting every detail right — Backun is the answer.

Royal Global — A name that serious clarinetists are discovering as one of the most compelling values in professional clarinets available anywhere. Every Royal Global instrument is built with features typically reserved for instruments costing significantly more.

Vintage & Pre-Owned Saxophones — A rotating selection of quality vintage and pre-owned saxophones set up by our certified repair technician before sale. 

Every instrument we sell has been personally inspected and set up by our repair technician before it ships. This is not a standard you can expect from an online box shipper or a general music retailer. It is the difference between an instrument that plays well from the first note and one that needs a service visit before it reaches its potential. Every instrument ships across Canada.
