No one ever talk about German clarinets.

I am not a German clarinet player, but I know some people that play them. From what I know, these clarinets are technolgically much more advanced than the standard french Boehm system. But are very expensive (upto 10'000 $).

The woodwind dealer I go to copies key systems from German clarinets and puts them onto french clarinets.

I will not mention any manufacturers because I don't know anything about these instruments. What I know, is that most of the luthiers design their instrument not industrially but artisanally and use techniques transmitted from father to son, in the same way as violin manufacturers.

The german school is an extremely influencial school for clarinet, and most of the clarinet repertoire has been written for this type of playing.
