RE: Herbert Blayman Clarinet Mouthpieces

I studied with Herb at the Manhattan School of Music. I also had the opportunity to do quite a bit of substitute work at the Met. We remained close friends until he passed away (I believe it was in 2007). His mpcs were marked with his initials according to the tip opening:

H=105/6
E=110
R=115
B= 120

I know that he occasionally faced some for individuals that wanted specific openings. He played on the R(115). He was a marvelous clarinetist and a wonderful person.
I have a few of the stock openings that he personally adjusted. If you are interested please contact me off line.
