Since when did America claim ownership of the clarinet? It was invented in Germany and later instruments were made (and played by the world's best) in Britain (Boosey & Hawkes) and France (Selmer, Buffet, Leblanc).
Of course Goodman, Shaw, Herman etc brought the clarinet to public acclaim but, so did Jack Brymer (from South Shields), Sid Phillips, Vic Ash, Acker Bilk, Monty Sunshine and many others.
It will be interested to hear readers' views on this - I'll be in bed by then listening to a CD by Carl Barriteau!
Another three very fine British jazz clarinettists were Nat Temple, Johnny Barnes, and Tony Coe. The Swedes had Stan Hasselgard, the French, Hubert Rostaing, and there were so many more. Compared with Reginald Kell, Jack Brymer, Gervaise de Payer, Julian Bliss and others, I don't beileve the Americans have produced an awful lot of world-class classical clarinettists, but at least they can always hold on to the fact that they produced the one and only Ted Lewis!
