So, I tried this out.

It's very light, made of synthetic material, and works well. I've not investigated such instruments since I bought a Lyons C clarinet – around 25 years ago? It was the first iteration of that instrument, and was never satisfactory for me. I believe it got better.

The only thing I thought strange was the lack of the RH/LH link. (The keywork is there, but has been chopped off, so there is no connection.)

Sometimes people ask me about their musical children, and ask whether they might be interested in playing the clarinet.

So, I'll buy one of these, lend it to the kid and see what they make of it, to begin with.

It's how I started. (Teaching came a little bit later.)

Are there other competitive instruments in this field?

Tony
