Clarinet/Oboe Combination Case

Author: lisabilski

Do any of you know of anyone who makes a combination case for a Bb clarinet and oboe?

Alternately, does anyone know how to alter either a double clarinet case or an oboe/english horn combo case to accommodate the Bb clarinet/oboe combination?

Any input would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Lisa

The best bet is to adapt a cor anglais oboe case. Put the clarinet where the cor goes. You will need some packing or have an upholsterer re-line it to fit a clarinet. I have seen it done. The likelihood of finding what you want ready made is small there is no market.

I got one of those camera-cases with easy-to-shape foam filling. You could adapt that to suit any combination.

I figured that I would not find a ready-made case, but I knew someone on this board would know if one existed! Thanks for the tips.

Terry Horlick is a master a making cases for unusual combinations of clarinets so his efforts might be if use to you. Maybe GBK has the link for his "case by the numbers presentation."

Or you could type
"horlick case" into the BBoard search page and search by subject & author, which brings back a post by Terry with his links:
