Jack Brymer

English clarinettist

John Alexander Brymer OBE (27 January 1915 – 16 September 2003) was an English clarinettist and saxophonist. The Times called him "the leading clarinettist of his generation, perhaps of the century". He was largely self-taught as a player and he performed as an amateur before being invited by Sir Thomas Beecham to join the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 1947. He remained with the orchestra until 1963, two years after Beecham's death. Brymer played in the BBC Symphony and London Symphony Orchestras. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Brymer
