I played a Super Brillante during HS from about 1968-70. Bright and centered sound. Intonation fair, but on sharp side. Silver plating on keys wore off in a few months. Developed a crack from the register vent. I borrowed a Normandy, a Noblet Model 40 or Leblanc LL to play most of the time while finishing HS.

Seems like the PM retailed for about $330.00 in those days, and my parents bought it for less than 1/2 price at a music store going out of business. I wanted a Selmer 9* or Leblanc LL. (That was before the Selmer series 10 came to my attention) ... It was the difference between $400.00 for the pro clarinets and $150.00 for the closed out PM ...

I think I gave the PM away when I bought my first Evette E13 in the late 1970s, which I kept until about 1986 ...
