 Schreiber D12 in Bb Childrens Clarinet
Author: Simon

I have a 7 year old son who is very interested in playing the clarinet, naturally because of his age he can't play a standard size clarinet.

I noticed on the Buffet web page they have a Schreiber D12 Childrens clarinet. Has anyone got any information or experience with this clarinet. Any information will be most appreciated.

Many thanks!

Simon from OZ

It is the Schreiber equivalent of a Kinder clari. From memory pitched in Eb with a slightly simplified fingering system. The Schreiber is a simplified Oehler system not Boehm. I don't know where you are in Australia but Schreiber can be hard to get hold of because of the projection ordering system, ie. the local importers must project a sales figure when dealing with the Boosey group who only manufacture to the projections world wide. I deal on a regular basis with 2 importers Kurt Jacob in Sydney (Prospect) and Wrights Music in Melbourne (North Fitzroy), who do not routinely order Schreiber clarinets only bassoons. They are the 2 to try for Schreiber. A Kinder-clari, simplified Boehm, is available through Ensemble Music, the Selmer importers at Northbridge or their retailers. I waited 6 months for a D61, 20 key Oehler, which did not appear and still hasn't so I bought a Yamaha 20 Key which took a couple of weeks. Schreiber have only tried the bassoon market here in Australia with some success, I use a Fox which is saying something.
