The heritage of English clarinet virtuosi
George Tyler, Julian Egerton
These clarinets were made for George Tyler, who died in 1878. The famous clarinettist Julian Egerton (1848-1945) bought them from Tyler’s widow. This very fine set was made by J. Fieldhouse in London about 1862, (114) and (133). It has a cocus mouthpiece, and the body of each instrument is made in one piece from ebonite. The instruments show some excellent and interesting details e.g. metal rollers on cross keys and the A-touchpiece. Like the Ottensteiner they have plates to improve the forked fingerings.
