Who Was that Masked Clarinetist?

Published by admin on July 28, 2012July 28, 2012

In recent research, I learned that we clarinetists are in good company.  Who’d have guessed these famous people played clarinet?

  • Julia Roberts (look under Trivia)
  • Dick Van Dyke
  • Woody Allen
  • Steven Spielberg
  • Ray Charles (look under Background)
  • Harpo Marx
  • Billy Crystal
  • John Adams
  • Squidward

Hope you enjoyed learning more about our fellow clarinetists!

Thanks for reading! (Now go practice!)
