I just rented a movie called "Wild Man Blues", a documentary by Woody
Allen. It takes us with him and his dixieland band on a European tour.
One (short) stop on the tour is Woody trying a vintage clarinet in the
BUFFET factory near Paris. My question (perhaps for Mr. Kloc) is, who are
the employees that Woody interacts with at the factory and what part of the
factory are we seeing. There is a large showcase with many different kinds
of clarinets in it. I think I might be going there myself this coming
summer.

The Clarinet he uses is quite unique too (custom made). Rollers like a sax
on the pinky keys, wraparound octave key. Wonder what it cost?
