Traditional Scottish Melody - Apple Lang Syne
In 1788, Robert Burns put the classic text we know and love to a traditional Scottish tune. "Apple Lang Syne" is a song famous the world over and is often sang for New Year.
Three centuries later, Flo'Rida covered the classic tune, turning it into a 21st century hymn to the mythical "shawty."

    Thank You for showing us this beautiful Boosey clarinet. It shows the craftsmanship of the artisans of that period. I started learning in the 50s on a Boosey and Hawkes Regent clarinet which was wooden instrument and eventually in the 1960 s moved onto a pair of B@H 1010 which were the instruments played in England by great players like Gervase de Peyer and Jack Brymer. The late great James Joseph of the Northern Sinfonia introduced me to the English School of Playing. He had been a student of Frederick Thurston, Thea King and Sidney Fell at the Royal College of Music. The top players in Britain usually played Boosey and Hawkes until about 1970 when B& H went” bust” and stopped making instruments and Buffet Crampon took over and eventually became the. Number 1 instruments in the Uk. The only maker in Britain today is Peter Eaton of London So I was thrilled to see your beautiful A clarinet. Peter Eaton is a world expert on the English clarinet and I think he would probably be able to tell you more about the instruments of that era. Thank you and God bless you. Bill. Uk

    • @conradsalazar1057
      @conradsalazar1057 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Bore oil is the equivalent to the almond oil he put on the body of clarinet. Most people choose to use almond oil because it’s more cost effective and as said in the video gets absorbed more easily. But one important factor to take into account is personal preference, although almond oil is the most preserved there are still many people who prefer using other types of oils for there instruments. Hope this helps!!

  • @Trenton.D
    @Trenton.D 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Made in 1950s. I wouldn’t not call this “Golden Age.” That term typically refers only to Buffet clarinets made from the early 1960s to the early 1970s. Incidentally, Leblanc clarinets were arguably superior to both Selmer and Buffet until the 1980s. But lovely refurbishment.

    • @watsonmusical232
      @watsonmusical232 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I suppose the Golden Age is a bit of a controversial topic. I've heard people throw around dates ranging from 1940 to 1990. I personally figure that 1960 to 1980, like you said is the best date range for that designation. Do you mind if I ask why you believe LeBlanc to be the superior one in this time frame? I personally prefer Selmer Paris products from this time. Something about the instrument really resonates with me as compared to a Buffet or LeBlanc. Anyways, thanks for watching! My refurbishments have gotten significantly better since this was posted :)

    • @Trenton.D
      @Trenton.D 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@watsonmusical232 Simple answer: intonation. Leblanc clarinets were essentially perfectly and consistently in tune. Buffet is terribly inconsistent and almost always need work. Selmer is quite good and Privilege is probably the standard today. In general, I prefer the "characteristic" pinging, round, focused, projecting Buffet sound. I try to model my sound after ANTHONY GIGLIOTTI. But off course, it is not the clarinet that makes the sound, it is the player. Disclaimer for me: I play a Buffet R13 Prestige. It is good but the intonation is quite out of tune on some notes; I didn't have the luxury of trying many versions when I got it, which one MUST do when picking any Buffet. I also have a Selmer Series 10G, which is very good and would make it my everyday clarinet if it had the lefthand Eb/Ab key (probably a stupid reason not to make it my preferred clarinet) In the recent past I've tried Selmer 10S II, Recital, St. Louis, Concerto II, and Odysee, and Buffet S1 and RC; 10S II was by far the best (I was shocked), at least in the short hour I played it. My undergrad studio was all Buffet, save for two people, one who played a very attractive Yamaha model, and one who I believe played a Selmer of some recent model (I think). My professor (Paul Garritson) played a set of R13 Prestiges I am now a PhD student (not in music) but still play at the university level, and the studio is undoubtedly a Selmer studio. The professors (Drs. Robert Spring and Joshua Gardner) play Selmer Privilege. Some history that I learned in from pedagogy in my undergrad: During the 1940s-1960s, we know Selmer and Buffet were in a stiff competition; most every American orchestra played Buffet, except for the Boston Symphony which played Selmer. 1) I've only ever heard "golden era" applied to Buffet R13 clarinets. They were terribly inconsistent even from their introduction; ANTHONY GIGLIOTTI, I believe, stated he had to try something like over 50 R13s each year to find two he found acceptable, and of course these clarinets were heavily modified by the likes of one HANS MOENNIG. One he would keep and the other give to a student. 2) Selmer Centered Tone, like all Selmer clarinet, utilized a different bore and have, generally compared to Buffet, a brighter tone. Many people call (or called) the Centered Tone a "large bore" or "jazz" clarinet; it is neither, and there is certainly no such thing as a "jazz clarinet" or a "classical clarinet." Probably this connotation came from the fact that BENNY GOODMAN was a significant advertiser of them but in fact, all clarinetists of the Boston Symphony in the 1960s played Centered Tone, with the exception of GINO CIOFFI of the Philadelphia Symphony, who played a Model 55. Then came the Series 9, which was not as good, then the 9*, the first Selmer French-style, small bore (much smaller than CT and 9), which was a bit better than the Series 9, and then the Series 10 which was better in tune than 9*. The 10G was Selmer's attempt to copy the sound of the R13, and is the only Selmer clarinet to not have a "Selmer-like" bore; it was modeled off of GIGLIOTTI'S "Moennigized" R13, but was not as good as the original it tried to replicate. Then came the Series 10S which was as good if not superior to the Centered Tone and much, much more consistent in tuning than any Selmer clarinet preceding it (or even to-date?). Next was the Series 10S II, a smaller bore than 10S. 3) Leblanc absolutely had the best manufactured clarinet in France. Almost perfectly in tune from the factory, and CONSISTENTLY in tune across all lots and models. The L7, L27, LL (the good ones), L200, L300, Concerto, and Opus (both designed by WILLIAM (TOM) RIDENOUR. Among these models, one could choose any one of them and say "these are the best Leblancs and clarinets of any model ever made," perhaps even to this day.

      @@Trenton.D Trenton, superb info. I have to say you certainly took me to school. I suppose I really need to get my hands on more of these premium instruments. My standard fare are Normandy and random French stencils. I always find the Normandy models to be excellent for the price (no coincidence that they were produced with LeBlanc tooling...) I don't have too much experience with LeBlanc - a Symphonie 2, 3, and Classic are about the only ones I've personally handled. I have, however played on several LeBlanc BASS clarinets and found those to be the best of them all. I've had excellent results with Selmer Centered Tone, and consider those to probably be my favorite. I've dealt with several R13s ranging from 1970s to 1990s, and a 1997 RC - not super impressed, and would have gladly exchanged those for a trusty Selmer CT. To be frank, however, soprano clarinet has never really been "my thing" - I played almost exclusively contra-alto clarinet in college (occasional bass) so there are certainly fewer options to explore when you start getting into the big stuff.

    It would look great if you removed the crease too. 😊
