well, I can - a bit.
JB was chosen by Beecham to be principal clarinet of the RPO when he
wasn't even a full-time player, and, to use a cliche, he "never looked
back". He has made a huge number of recordings. I think now he has
officially retired. He plays on B & H Symphony 1010s - or at least, that's
what he's known for playing on.
