Another clarinettist here. Also piano (rustily) and recorders. Fairly eclectic tastes mainly, I think, because I'll give anything a listen once - some do turn out to be just once.

Currently ear-wormed by a mix of Hindemith, Franck and Ravel. having played bass clarinet in pieces by the first two last night with Ely Sinfonia (http://www.elysinfonia.co.uk/home/).

For anyone within range of Cambridge UK, with an interest in 20th and 21st century music, the upcoming Cambridge Philharmonic concert (Adès, Adams, Ives) looks rather a treat (http://www.cam-phil.org.uk/posters/2017-05-20.pdf).

Bass clarinets are awesome! I sat in front of one in my university orchestra and it was just a great sound.

I love my bass - and the way, when seated on risers I, and anyone else on the same riser, can feel vibrations at certain notes/resonances. Contrabasses are even more awesome - and on the playing end you get to feel your eyeballs are vibrating :-)
