Here's a link to a great website:

http://www.andystatman.org

lots of sound, photos and videos.

Statman plays a pair of old Albert system clarinets: a Bb (that he says is about 100 years old) and a C.

He also plays incredible mandolin.

GREAT music!!!!

Thanks so much for sharing.

This one was just recommended to me as I listened to yours.

It may help if you read Hebrew but you can enjoy the intro number. He is the principal of the Israel Philharmonic.

Just a correction - he is not the principal of the Israel Philarmonic, he is the clarinet/bass clarinet player. Really great player (and on bass too)!

The IPO's website does not list an Andy Statman as a clarinet player; identifies the bass clarinetist as Israel Zohar. Do we have a case of identity-shifting aliases here?

I loved the clips of Statman's playing on the web -- especially hearing him play what sounds like a C clarinet. Truly he is a worthy successor to the great Dave Tarras!

Dear Clarnibass and Larry,

Thanks for clarifying Israel's position in the IPO. My sources were a bit less informed.

I rooted around on Israel's site and I am not finding any Klezmer bass playing. Hmmmmmm?
