Backun E-flat Clarinet Barrels Demo, Comparison, and Review

In this video, I am demonstrating and comparing the e-flat barrels by Backun. I recently switched to a cocobolo Backun e-flat barrel and love it!
My E-flat setup consists of:
Selmer Paris Recital E-flat clarinet
Backun E-flat Barrel in cocobolo
Behn Epic Mouthpiece in close
Silverstein HEXA Ligature in rose gold
D'Addario Reserve Classic Reeds 3.5+

I use an excerpt from Ravel’s Bolero to test e-flat clarinet gear. Here’s a link to the music on IMSLP: imslp.org/wiki/Boléro_(Ravel,...)

Thanks for the Eb demo! We need more of these little guys, and demos of all the options for them, please!

It is fascinating that the cocobolo clearly gives you more control on both the e flat and b flat. You can hear it.

Amazing! I use the grenadilla cutout barrel so I can use my b flat reeds on it!

Thanks for tips about Eb barrels. I currently play a Pyne Eb barrel that is looking worn (and is not replaceable).

It’s dry in the winter … don’t want all that wood in there to crack. 😖

Thanks for this video! I happen to look for barrels too to help me with altimissio intonation. Im currently using the stock 43mm barrel too.
Which eb mouthpiece are you using currently? The chocobolo barrel seems to fit ur setup better. It sounds fuller and projected.
