  • Answer:

    Since you mention the clarinet there's Pete Fountain, jazz clarinetist: Then there's this banjo player, Pete Wernick. Even though he's more bluegrass, his album "On A Roll" I recently came across has pieces a bit like Benny Goodman and thought I'ld share: The precision in the instrumentation, especially the clarinet, is very jazz centric, though not traditional jazz, but worth a listen on these two songs: Farewell Blues: http://www.last.fm/music/Pete+Wernick/_/Farewell+Blues?autostart Haystack Rock: http://www.last.fm/music/Pete+Wernick/_/Haystack+Rock?autostart Amazing the unique sound created using a vibraphone, clarinet and banjo.
