Hey to (P)a(u)l(l)
Today I went the store I intended too, they were nice just gave me a bunch of ligatures to try out in a private setting..
Anyway.. they didn't have the Soprano Clarinet jlv ligature at hand as they stopping the sales. So they gave me the saxophone (alto?) version.. which "fitted" around the MP, but the reedclamp wasvjust to large. Ofcourse this has a big influence on the reeds vibration ergo the sound. So I wasn't at all impressed
He tried to talk me into a Yanagisawa Yany-Sixs Ligature, which I must say.. sounded and responded really good, but the price was also a bit TOO good (for there wallet, not mine though).
Anyway.. I didn't watch the video you pointed out to me yet, but I did now.
After this. I am wondering..
What does a D.Bonade ligature make a Bonade ligature? As I look around it is ligature that is made by many factories, except for a factory called D.Bonade? Is there a bit of history that I am missing here?
(possible answers to these questions are discussed by me in my next post in this thread).
And again the same question, with the silver prices as low as they are, why aren't more factory making sterling silver (or even forged fine silver) ligatures.. ?
on the wood-stone website I did find that they basically make every ishimori setup possible and also give a small graph to indicate the effects of each combo.
but silver doesn't come out really great.. which is different to Dale's experience.
So this rises the question... How much can one interpolate that to a D.Bonade design.
Making a Bonade (like) ligature in silver is definately not a real big task for me.. but still.. would it be worth it, or is there more to it then just the material.
As far as remember, Dale didn't try out any modern silver Bonades. Only old and modern brass bonade's, and those definately have a different alloy, (sterling) silver doesn't, well it shouldn't.
anyway.. I am going to look at the video again (and again probably)
Kind greats
Matt
PS:any oneany expererience with the Kodama (II) ligatures?
