Subj: [kl] Benade Clarinet Mouthpiece Overblowing at the Octave?
Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2002 06:23:06 -0500

I should have waited a day. The Contrabass list today has the answer from
Art Howe, who studied under Benade and is an authority on old and unusual
clarinets. It turns out that Benade adapted a flute head joint to fit on a
clarinet, so of course it overblew as an open pipe.

Best regards.
