we've had this capped shawm* for over 40 years, bought it in an amazing ethnomusic shop in london called Ray Man (sadly gone now) and believe it or not, it still plays, though the reed is also over 40 years old now
we'd really like to find out what the local name of the instrument is and where it's from (we guess either the indian subcontinent, central asia, or se asia), which will put us on the path to finding new reeds for it
if any of you know please let us know, or if you know ethnomusicologists or musicians from these regions who might know what it is, please share this around, thanks
*to clarify, this means it's played with the cap over the reed, so you just blow through the cap without touching the reed, so all the note control comes from breath pressure
this took many hours on pinterest

Paquito D'Rivera, Interviewed by Anat Cohen
Cuban clarinetist Paquito D’Rivera (I know he plays other reeds, but his clarinet sound and playing are heavenly) is interviewed in 2013 for Jazz Times by one of the best clarinetists to come along since Paquito: Anat Cohen. A wonderful conversation from two worldly masters.

Anat Cohen: Musical Chameleon
R.J. Deluke's profile of Anat Cohen pegs her as a musical Zelig, but that implication somewhat understates her musical importance. Sure, she has the uncanny ability to blend in seamlessly in numerous disparate settings, but she asserts her own prowess, assurance and passion in whatever art form she has chooses. Don't underestimate this singular and commanding voice.

One of those nights where I’m looking for something, not finding it, but finding neat things along the way. Enjoy this lovely group of early double-reed instruments, with a period of “declamation” in the middle en français. (He is declaiming over “the victory of François 1 over the Milanese and their Swiss troops in September 1515″ (je pense!))
I learned from this, btw, that a bombard is a traditional Breton instrument, which I did not know, so there’s a win.
Song of the Reed Player When adults literally drove me away from the clarinet as a child, I despaired. Never did I think as a defeated child that I would find victory as an adult playing the clarinet for the sorrowful, joyful, and those just full of life.
