Actually Dr. Charles Bay, know as Charles Bay or “Charlie” Bay received a DMA in Clarinet from the Eastman School of Music, and was a student of Stanley Hasty. He was in school with such famous clarinetists as Elsa Ludwig, Larry Combs, Peter Hadcock and many others. He was a member of the Eastman Wind Ensemble in the late 1950’s and was in the US service before then. He, to my knowledge, did not study with Kaspar, but did study his mouthpieces. He often consulted with Stanley Hasty, and others and began making mouthpieces when he was a Professor of Clarinet at Ithaca College, during the early 1960’s. He made my first bass clarinet mouthpiece for me at his house in Ithaca in 1964, and I had the pleasure of performing in a summer festival orchestra in 1967 with Dr. Bay
