 The Clarinet BBoard

Do you know who was your teacher's own teacher. Have you heard their playing and can you discern any in approach or style, handed down through the generations?
It is a long time since I had lessons, but when I did so I had three teachers in succession. Through one of them I can trace the line back to Sidney Fell, one of the most renowned British clarinet teachers. In fact, I had two or three lessons from Fell himself so I suppose I can claim that his teacher was also my grand teacher (not sure who that is, possibly Charles Draper). Through another teacher I can claim descent from George Garside who was principal with the London Symphony Orchestra in the 1920s/30s. Yesterday I listened to my 1939 recording of the LSO doing Brahms 1st, probably with Garside, and I thought that, yes, that is how I would like to play and I do strive to play in that kind of style.
Has anyone else worked out whether they can notice the influence of their grand teacher(s)?

My teacher's teacher was the great Anthony Gigliotti. 47 years principal clarinet with the Philadelphia orchestra. Played the 10G (which he helped design), played on his own personal mouthpiece (my instructor has one and so do I), and played well. Of course, I haven't heard him so I don't know, but I was told ![[wink]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie3.gif) . He studied with bonade. So I guess I can go back to bonade. Don't know who he studied from.
I don't know his musical style, but I know my instructor playes all gigliotti stuff except for the 10g. He has a gigliotti barrel, reed, ligature, mouthpiece, and silk swab. The mouthpiece and barrel were made/faced especially for him by Gigliotti. I do know that my instructor tends to leak air a lot. Did Gigliotti do that?
Alexi
I figure if we keep this thread up long enough we'll end up back to the adam/eve of clarinet. Some obscure person back in history that played a one reeded instrument without a name.

graham,
I think Sid was taught by Frederic Thurston, so I suppose that makes him our "grand-teacher"
There can't have been a huge difference in age between them. I wonder if you'd know how much?

For me and many others, grandpappy is Daniel Bonade.
And no, in my experience, Gigliotti was not a "leaker". That man didn't squander a single air molecule.

A reading from the Book of StickMasters, by Casimir ("Chilidog") Kell:
"At the great Conservatoire de Paris, the self-taught Frederic Berr begat Hyacinthe Eleonore Klosé. And Klosé begat Cyrille Rose. And Rose begat Cahuzac, and Jeanjean, and Lefevre, and Prosper (Charles Joseph) Mimart, and H. & A. Selmer. And Mimart begat Daniel Bonade.
"And in the year 1920 the Swiss Daniel Bonade became a citizen of the United States of America. And in the year 1924 he began teaching at Philadelphia's Curtis Institute, and then at the Cleveland Institute, and then at New York's Mannes School, and then at New York's Juilliard. And Daniel Bonade begat Ignatius Gennusa, and Anthony Gigliotti, and Mitchell Lurie, and Robert Marcellus, and Bernard Portnoy. And yea, Daniel Bonade begat a great slew of others less well known to most."
I like his ligature.
Regards,
John

I know my old teacher's teacher was Charles Neideich (sp?) and one of my current teacher's teachers was Gennusa.
Hey, we have a bunch of pics of Bonade in the ICA research collection from the Jerry Pierce collection. There's ones of him on vacation and with his wife and her dog Musique. Of course everything is in French, so I don't understand half of it. Then there are later ones of Jerry and Bonade. Tre cool. hehe

I wonder what the relevance is of who your "grandteacher" is (was), although I must admit that it is very important to know who your CURRENT teacher is. I might want to hire her/him. Am I missing the point somehow? If so, I'm sorry! Please enlighten me!

Well, the teacher has to be pretty good if they are going ot be taught by Gigliotti. I mean... no top dog clarinetist is going to teach someone that sucks. Now, the teaching ability may be a bit different, but most ppl that have been taught by these ppl also pick up their teaching abilities.

My grand teachers include Daniel Bonade and Joe Allard from Carmine Campione; and Gigliotti, Russianoff, Weber, Marcellus, Cioffi, among many others. I have not heard any on this list as they had past away before I was born or I lived too far to go hear them. Plus, I believe that as of my grand teachers goes, only David Weber is still around.

My grandteacher is James Pyne and my great-grandteacher is Stan Hasty. But who was Hasty's teacher? I googled all over trying to find it, and no one has mentioned it here.
And, to answer (sort of) the original question, which was the real point of this thread, I'm no where near good enough to emulate my teacher, or my grand-teachers. But working on it

To answer you question, Henry, I feel my teacher is "very good". He passes on to his students what he believes is relevant and makes sense in regards to playing the clarinet. He combines what he was taught (from Gigliotti) with some of his own thoughts on playing. He both plays professionally and teaches at my university, so I would say he is doing well! More importantly I greatly enjoy studying with this person; my i've noticed small but significant differences in my playing even within a semester's time.

Hi...I have an interesting pedigree. I've had 3 teachers in my 5 year career at college because of various reasons...Two of them played saxophone as their main instrument. If I were a saxophone player, my grand teacher would be Fischer from UGA..but I'm not...so I guess one clarinet ancester would be Dr. Jahn (who has recently passed away) from UGA. Also Ron deKant at Cincinnati and Ronald Munson (sp??) from Univ. of Kentucky. If I end up going to grad school at Univ. of Florida, I would also have Stanley Drucker. Interesting stuff. I hope some of it has rubbed off on me!
Interesting post!

My teacher was my father, Walt Sarlette, from Minnesota who played with the big bands before he got married and settled down. His teacher was HIS father, Pete Sarlette, who traveled with the Ringling Brothers Circus band for years before HE settled down. Pete was originally from Belgium and played in the Belgium beer halls. I just received a copy of our Sarlette geneology from my brother going back to 1675 in Belgium and mostly all of the Sarlettes were musicians. A very strong gene!

I can trace my piano lineage all the way to Haydn through Beethoven and Liszt (I was student of a student of Liszt's last living student) - with a 2nd of my piano teachers being one of the only 5 students of Horowitz.
Clarinet would be Bonade and Marcellus from Shifrin. With my first and 2nd teacher it would be Keith Stein and Leon Russianoff (though I played in a masterclass of his too). Don't remember who Joe Allard studied with.
Yes, Gigliotti leaked a LOT of air.
On some of his recordings (quintet with strings) it sounded like a hurricane was a blowin when he came in. He had a massive sound too.

I don't know my first 'grand teacher' because I no longer have a copy of my first professor's bio, and I can't remember where he went to school (not a major conservatory). He died in 2001.
'Grand Teacher #2" is David Weber. I understand how great he is, but it got really old to hear about him every 5 seconds. But I doubt I'll ever be invited to the 'family reunion' since that professor and I didn't part on the best of terms. I am actually dreading the day I have to contact him for grad school recommendations (though it's been 2 years now).

...........as an aside..........
often noted is Bonade as being the teacher of Marcellus.
However, before going to Bonade in New York, Marcellus's teacher was Earl Handlon of the Minneapolis Symphony.
Neither of whom were my 'grandfathers' but, I do have a Buffet R13 A that was selected by Earl Handlon for one his 'other' students.
I purchased it from that student......after it sat unused in a closet for 30+ years......one can never have too many good A's ![[happy]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smiley12.gif)

My main teacher had three wonderful teachers - his first teacher was Kalman Bloch, then he went to Leon Russianoff and eventually Rudolf Jettel.
If you add my high school teacher to the mix or the various people I've taken some lessons with since, most roads lead to Bonade.

In Minneapolis, I studied several years with
Earl Handlon in for-credit courses. He had studied with Grizez as I recall. He was extremely well organized. Later, I studied with Mitchell Lurie and Ben Kanter in Los Angeles. It appears that many members on this board are based in the East of the USA.

You have a wonderful teacher. I had the honor of studying with Doug when I was a student @ Oakland University. He really rekindled my love for the clarinet and taught me much that I still use in my own playing and teaching today. I went on to study with Rosario Mazzeo who I consider to be my Maestro and a "Grand Teacher". Please tell Doug that David Barnett sends greetings to him.

My 3 main teachers were Jerry Stowell, George Weber and Daniel Bonade, so I guess my grandteachers were Marius Fossenkemper, Robert Lindemann and Henri Lefebvre, respectively. Never thought about it that way before! Sort of like the EU: one each from Belgium, Germany and France.
Incedentally, GBK cites Val Henrich as being from the Denver Symphony; does that pre-date Denver's (now Colorado SO) "major symphony" years?

I've never thought of this before but my teacher’s teacher studied with Eric Hessler at the Royal Conservatory. His ancestors at the same conservatory lead back to a student of Bernhard Crusell’s. Crusell studied with Franz Tausch in 1798. Tausch was his very first real teacher after having been principal clarinet with the Royal Court Orchestra for six years already. He was quite annoyed that he had to start from the beginning by playing “the scale”.

In Hawaii we often use the term "poi dog" to mean a mixed breed dog.
We have students here that have a lot of "poi dog" in their "grand teacher" lineage.

My teacher studied with Abe Galper in Toronto, with whom I had only one lesson of my own. But we'd meet up with the Galpers from time to time, and even when "retired" Abe was always interested in the welfare of his students and their students. Abe was happy to offer suggestions and would often come to recitals and concerts. He and his wife always had a sparkle in their eyes when talking with us.
My teacher also studied with Robert Marcellus, taking time to travel to Cleveland once a week for long lessons with him. After knowing this I wanted to see if I could meet Robert (I'm from the Cleveland area originally) but by then he'd passed away.
There are many tricks that have been passed along to me from those grand-teachers, most of which I use with my own students. But I suppose as with anybody there are things that I add to my own teaching that I wish had been taught to me in order to make the road a little easier along the way.
This BB is an enormous help as well. I've learned many things that are common points of view, some new tricks for teaching, and also that there are many divergent opinions about some topics. It helps me to not be dogmatic about certain things when teaching but rather help my students see different sides of an issue and form an opinion of their own. With other things I can take a stand and tell the student that this is the way it is, and why we're going to do this even though they don't want to. Once we clearly see the issues or the consequences down the road we're better able to guide students so they have a good chance to succeed when they reach more difficult material.

Stanley Hasty was my teacher's teacher at Eastman.
Last year, I came across a doctoral dissertation written at Florida State University (Frank Kowalsky, then a dean, was a Hasty pupil, I believe) that included a wonderful appendix on Hasty's teaching methods....in his own words and as told to the writer by some of his star pupils of earlier years.
I discussed this with my teacher, who responded with a grin, saying:
"Now you know what I'm doing to you!"

Hmm... My three grand teachers are Eli Eban, Robert Spring and Stan Fisher, and my great grand teachers are, through Egan Gigliotti, and through Spring John Mohler, David Shifrin and Paul Shaller. I haven't been able to find anything about Stan Fisher's teacher, though.
I didn't think I had any pedigree at all, and that's not bad, is it?

All French linage:
Studied with Marcellus > Bonade > Lefebvre > Rose > Klose > Berr (self taught?).
I don't know how that relates to Baermann as GBK referenced at the top of this thread but....

I studied with several wonderful teachers over the years, but my three favorites were Keith Stein, Larry Maxey (briefly, but he made quite an impact), and Doug Cornelsen.
Keith Stein was a very special man. Does anyone know who he studied with? This is one subject he never discussed with me, and I never thought to ask him.
I know that Larry Maxey studied with Stein, but I'm not sure who his other teachers were.
>[Doug Cornelsen's] teacher was Robert Marcellus. And obviously Marcellus teacher was Bonade. Bonades teacher was Lefebvre. And Lefebvre teacher was Rose.
When I studied with Doug Cornelsen, a wonderful person, teacher, and performer, I really didn't know about his teachers. Wow, now I'm impressed! The next time I play a Rose etude, I can say that I indirectly studied with the great one!

You are correct, as a teacher, per se, he doesn't.
However, Carl Baermann's ops. 63 and 64 (1864-1873) "Clarinet School" became one of the most widely used primers for generations of future "Grand Teachers."

My only real teacher (with whom I started when I was about 75) has been Eugene Jones, who studied with Gino Cioffi, among others. Of course I now have as teachers all the members of this BB, whose help I highly value.

My teacher's teacher was Sidney Forrest and his was Simeon Bellison and his, according to this site, was Joseph Friedrich (not sure of that's the whole name or if this is in reference to Hummel).

Two university teachers: Phillip Miechel and Peter Jenkin.
Phillip studied with I don't know whom in Australia and in Germany with Jost Michaels who studied with Richard Gräfe and there the trail goes a bit cold;
Peter studied with Alan Bray and David Shepherd (or Shephard?) in Adelaide and then in London with, oh look - our very own Antony Pay!
Well, well, well.

Two instructors: Egrain Guigui and Jennifer Nelson.
By way of Jennifer, my Grand Teacher would be Gigliotti, Great Grand Teacher Bonade.
By way of Guigui...I have no idea, I do know he studied conducting under Otto Klemperer, Erich Kleiber, von Karajan and Stokowski
