 Re: What's left of national schools of playing?

The plea to preserve and favor the German system instruments received a great deal of impetus when the clarinet section of the Berlin Philharmonic protested the hiring of Boehm system player Chen Halevi as clarinet professor in a German conservatory. Halevi discusses this issue on his website at https://www.clarichen.com. Nevertheless, Halevi was hired and has been playing and teaching the Boehm clarinet in Germany at the Trossingen Hochschure fur Musik since 2002.

Dirk Altman, who played with the Berlin Philharmonic under von Karajan in the early 80s and studied with Karl Leister, has somehow managed to switch from the German instrument (to the Boehm made by Josef Oboes of Japan--which he helped design) and hold the position of principal clarinet with the SWR Symphony Orchestra in Stuttgart for several years now. There must be still more Boehm teachers and orchestral players in the German-system oriented world, but orchestras do appear to be under considerable pressure to promote the German-system instruments.
