Jacques Lancelot, the French clarinetist, said he could never understand why people switch from one brand, model of clarinet, mouthpiece, reed again and again. In essence, he said: "I play Buffet RC clarinets, Vandoren 5RV mouthpieces, Vandoren 3-strength reeds, and that is simply 'me'. It's what best reflects my personality." He regarded people that make regular changes fickle. On the other hand, I imagine players like Tony Pay that have played on all sorts of clarinets are more interested in expressing the character, sound and style of the music they are playing. Inevitably, their personality will nevertheless shine through. Ladies and gentlemen: your thoughts on the matter please. I think we can get a good discussion going on this topic.
