Bill McColl's Boxwood Buffet!

I recall reading in a thread about Charles Neidich (which inevitably turned to discussion of his boxwood Schwenk & Seggelke) that Mr. McColl had a custom-built Buffet R13 in boxwood, but a poster said they'd never heard of a recording made with it.

Well, I've just found several, and they're VIDEOS!

There is a Youtube channel that features the Soni Ventorum quintet, and there are some lovely close-up features on the clarinet where you can clearly see the Buffet stamps.

I find it to be a very sweet sounding instrument, and absolutely perfect for the quintet medium. (And it fits nicely with Felix Skowronek's cocuswood Rudall Carte flute/Alexander Eppler headjoint!)

There are quite a few more on the channel as well. Just thought I'd share...it isn't every day one sees a boxwood Buffet!
