Re: A-key clarinet list?

Hello the jonnydodds,

I have read your posts about a suitable Clarinet in A.
For what you want to do can I suggest that IF you can find a Metal Clarinet then you seriously think about it.
I play in a local wind band and I recently overhauled a metal clarinet that I bought cheaply several years ago, a Bb model. I am now playing this in the band as I feel that the sound I get is so much brighter and better than my wooden B&H 926. The 926 still is a good instrument and I have received many comments about 'is that a soprano sax' etc.
I must say I was astounded at the good sound that I can get from this.
It is a model called MADELON, one I have never heard of before. It is not a great looking instrument and is in need of re-plating at some time. But I think the sound is much more important.

Hope you find this a little helpful?

Mike Sz.
