ALTKLARINETTE SIGNIERT GIOSUE CAPECE, ITALIEN UM 1850

Die fünfteilige Altklarinette in Eb ist in gerader Bauform aus Buchsbaum gefertigt. Das Mundstück ist aus Grenadille gearbeitet. Die zwanzig Klappen in Form von Händen und herzförmigen Drückern bestehen aus Neusilber. Das Instrument befindet sich in einem dem Alter entsprechenden guten Erhaltungszustand. Das ebenfalls signierte und original zugehörige Mundstück ist vorhanden und kann daher genaue Rückschlüsse über die Spieleigenschaften geben. Die Klarinette ist spielbar. Die Entstehungszeit des Instruments ist bautechnisch (komplette Lagerung der Klappen mit Säulchen, im Holz montiert) und aufgrund der Achsschrauben auf die Mitte des 19. Jh. zu datieren.
Auf allen Teilen findet sich teilweise mehrmals der Schriftzug „CAPECE GIOSUE“ sowie weiteren Einlagesignaturen “CLAR_CAPECE Mb.” und "CLAR_CAPECE CAPECE INVENY". Ob dies die Erbauersignatur ist, ist nicht belegt, da kein Instrumentenbauer mit diesem Namen ausfindig gemacht werden konnte. Es liegt vielmehr die Vermutung nahe, dass es sich hierbei um den, am 08.09.1860 in den Ruhestand entlassenen zweiten Leutnant des Infanterieregiments mit dem Namen „Giosue Capece“ handelt. Die Altklarinette wurde 2022 durch Martin Wenner begutachtet, dessen Kurzgutachten vorliegt.
Kammerton: a1=445Hz
Abmessungen: Gesamtlänge inkl. Mundstück: 95,9cm.


ALTO CLARINET SIGNED GIOSUE CAPECE, ITALY CIRCA 1850
The five-piece alto clarinet in Eb is made of straight boxwood. The mouthpiece is made of grenadilla. The twenty keys in the shape of hands and heart-shaped pushers are made of nickel silver. The instrument is in good condition for its age. The original mouthpiece, also signed, is present and can therefore provide accurate information about the playing characteristics. The clarinet is playable. The date of origin of the instrument can be dated to the middle of the 19th century due to the construction (complete bearing of the keys with pillars, mounted in the wood) and the axle screws.
The inscription "CAPECE GIOSUE" can be found several times on all parts, as well as other inlay signatures “CLAR_CAPECE Mb.” and "CLAR_CAPECE CAPECE INVENY". Whether this is the maker's signature is not proven, since no instrument maker with this name could be found. It is more likely that this is the name of the second lieutenant of the infantry regiment, who retired on 8 September 1860, with the name "Giosue Capece". The alto clarinet was appraised by Martin Wenner in 2022. His appraisal report is available.
Concert pitch: a1=445Hz
Dimensions: Total length incl. mouthpiece: 95.9cm.
