I myself really don't like the sound of vibrato on a clarinet. I
think it shouldn't be done except maybe in jazz. However, I do think that
is becoming more acceptable with the younger generations. I have
actually tried using vibrato on the bass clarinet. I find it rather pretty in
slow romantic passages of various pieces that I have played. My
instructor, Ms. Babbette Belter, discourages vibrato on the clarinet but has
never really said anything of its use on the bass.
