Michael Bryant had a great page of clarinet-related stuff called The Constant Clarinet at the British Library site. However, the British Library has terminated that service, though you can still get to it on the Internet Archive at http://web.archive.org/web/20070318090923/http://pages.britishlibrary.net/michael.bryant/.

Michael -- are you out there? Have you resurrected Constant Clarinet somewhere else?

Hello,

Were you ever able to get more information on D.H. McKenney? About all I can find out is that he was 1st clarinet at MGM, that he played a glass mouthpiece, that he never ruined a "take" and that when he retired in 1954 he never touched his clarinet again. One of my teachers, Russ Cheever, his counterpart at Fox said, "he had a sound as big as this house," and another of my teachers, who didn't like anyone he hadn't taught said, "he had a beautiful tone." Let me know if you find out anything else, such as the equipment he used.

Thanks,

David Sherr

I kind of remember Don Christlieb calling him David.
