The ICA Clarinet Anthology is an effort underway to share some significant articles about the clarinet from various journals of the past The idea was generated by Past President F. Gerard Errante in 1994, and the articles are drawn from a list which he suggested. The task of putting them together was given to Keith Koons, as chair of the ICA Research Presentation Committee. He has gathered the articles, obtained permission to duplicate them, and edited them into computer format.
The ICA is also involved with a number of research projects and invites presentations
of all kinds at the annual ClarinetFest®.
We have included a list of some of the presentations given at the ClarinetFests® and
material where available. We also have the entire Master
Index to the first 25 Volumes of The Clarinet online. Back
issues are available.
Appreciation is expressed to all the ICA members who answered the anthology
survey and to the Research Presentation Committee members: Lawrence McDonald, Dennis Nygren, Pamela Poulin, Crystal Reinoso,
and Himie Voxman along with ICA legal counsel Bud Rubin and Stan Geidel.
