 Re: Different Schools of Sound, over time

Brymer's section on national schools of playing in his book "Clarinet" are interesting, both for what he tells us and for how outdated his comments seem now.

He mentions that many English players were experimenting with the Reform Boehm because of the tone colours it could produce - not many of those to be found now, I don't think. But he was writing thirty years ago, before England was invaded by the alien horde of R13s. One senses that he found the R13 rather boring.....

He writes at some length about the heavy reeds used by German players and the problems of articulation and intonation these can produce - but we learn on this BBoard that Leister, surely the archetype of the modern German player, uses very soft reeds.

The refreshing thing about Brymer is that he discusses these various instruments in terms of their musical potential, not in terms of ease of fingering.
