Henri Bok has devoted his life to the bass clarinet, inspired as an adolescent by the great Eric Dolphy. He has been a promotor of the bass clarinet and its repertoire for more than 25 years, both as a performer and a teacher. Since 1981, he has been Professor of Bass Clarinet at the Rotterdam (Superior) Conservatoire, where the unique bass clarinet programme attracts students from all over the world. He is the author of the standard work for his instrument: "New Techniques for the Bass Clarinet".

Henri Bok has recorded more than 20 CDs and we are pleased to feature two of these below.
