Subj: [kl] Benade Clarinet Mouthpiece Overblowing at the Octave?
Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2002 06:38:29 -0500

>From the Contrabass board:

>>Art Benade the acoustitian, who was also a clarinettist, claimed that he
had made a mouthpiece which overblows the octave, like a sax! <<

Has anyone heard of this? Where in his writings does it appear, and what did
design involve? And, by the way, what did it sound like? A saxophone, I'll
bet.
