Chilean Clarinet

The clarinet recital, in case you were wondering, was excellent!!  I never realized that the clarinet was really the only wind instrument that Brahms wrote for.  It almost inspires me to pull out the Brahms Sonata in F Minor and attempt to not butcher the 3rd movement.  Got a closeup look at the Chilean clarinet at the end.  It was all one piece and the guy that made it is a clarinet genius!  He makes them in a way that solves a lot of the common clarinet problems (besides the squeaking).  The register key was like a saxophone octave key.  While this might seem sac-religious to clarinet purists, as a wanna be saxophone player I was totally digging it!  Something else to add to my "When I win the Lottery" list.
