Today's clarinetists


Milestones

Recommended Posts

Beside Ken Peplowski & Anat Cohen (and, perhaps, Don Byron, who's not much active recording nowadays), the rest of the players mentioned are pretty obscure, working mostly in free jazz & similar esoteric idioms.

Looks like there is not much  enthusiasm for "licorice stick" in jazz anymore.

I agree with the praise for many of these musicians. I just wanted to throw in my opinion that Evan Christopher is perhaps the finest living jazz clarinetist.

I find it difficult to argue with that opinion (and wouldn't) now that Buddy De Franco and Kenny Davern are gone.
