Leblanc Cadenza

Last week I bought a Leblanc Cadenza (by Backun) from a University of N Texas student that changed from a clarinet major to business. I've spent the last week playing it and tinkering with it. It has Valentino pads in it, and after re-leveling a couple of them, this thing plays really well. The keywork is a little compact for my fat fingers, but I'm really pleased with the intonation up and down.

I'm not sure if it's a keeper because I like the feel of my Buffet better, but I'm really glad Leblanc is putting out nice clarinets from their US factory. I guess the French aren't the only ones that can build a fine clarinet.
