Specifically, at the beginning of Bob Crosby's version of South Rampart Street Parade, there is a clarinet horse whinny that's, well, pretty cool. How do you do that?
Thanks

a search of the Woodwind.org database (Klarinet archives and Bulletin Board) results in 15 hits for "horse whinny," including some input from Tony Pay.
I didn't read them all, so I'm not sure if the actual technique is discussed.
Another famous horse whinny (actually more of an ass) is the famous Fletcher Henderson recording of "Go 'long Mule" from 1924.
perhaps someone could search "mule whinny" or "bray," which is the correct terminology.

Get a trumpet.
Yeah, I know I'm being sarcastic, but the horse whinny done on trumpet in Leroy Anderson's "Sleigh Ride" is probably the most famous and most frequently done.
I'd be interested in hearing one done on a clarinet. What would it sound like on my bass clarinet? A Clydesdale?

In fact, I think the mule bray on clarinet is achieved with use of just the mouthpiece - no need to use or swab the rest of the instrument.
