Music comes from the most interesting places. For example, I was trying to get my son out of bed the other morning and suddenly realized the scratching noise my fingers were making on his pillow was rather musical. I even took advantage of that fact by saying it was a mouse squeaking trying to wake him up.
Maybe that’s similar to how the discoverer of the reed instrument stumbled upon the first “clarinet”. Whatever the case, that technology has come a long way until we now have this beautiful clarinet mouthpiece at m123 that will make music that put a smile on that first reed musician’s face as well as audiences today.
