Igalkov and Nathan,

I agree that Brad Behn makes excellent mouthpieces that are flexible in tonal shading and have good depth in the sound. His best pieces embody his motto to "celebrate resonance." In the US there are players in the Boston Symphony, Detroit Symphony and elsewhere using them. Sasha Rattle has played Behns and Bil Jackson now uses them. As to not worrying much about the current fashion in clarinet sound, some of that rare group of classical clarinetists who make a living as touring and recording soloists also have managed to play their own way: Sharon Kam would be a good example. Though German and living in that country, she plays Buffet R13 Boehm clarinets and evidently revels in producing (on a Peter Eaton mouthpiece) a very vibrant sound that--however out of fashion it may be--many concert goers and conductors love. Julian Bliss also retains vibrancy in his tone.

Chet,

Your comments remind me of the question about what ought to be considered Chedeville mouthpieces. Was, for example, the Alelandais mouthpiece Stanley Drucker used to such great distinction in his long career a Ched piece or more properly a Lelandias piece? Charles Chedeville and A. Lelandais evidently did work together at some point before Lelandais acquired the company. Bettony mouthpieces were usually made on Chedeville blanks but should they be called Chedeville mouthpieces? The same question can be asked concerning the fine mouthpieces (now collectors' items selling for high prices) made by Henri Leroy and Alexandre Robert. They were also (usually?) made from Ched blanks, but should they be called "Chedeville" mouthpieces?
