Dirk,

Eduard Brunner is a Swiss Clarinettist. He plays Boehm System and
nevertheless he was many years the principal of the Munich Radio
Orchestra. Since some years he is professor in Saarbruecken. His
speciality is New Music. Also most of Isang Yun compositions are written
for him. It seems that there are no technichal limits on the clarinet for
him. On the other hand there are many German clarinetists (playing German
System), who don't like his sound especially when he performs classical
repertoire.
