Does anyone know what key he is playing in? I've been practicing this on my Bb clarinet and am not sure what key I'm playing in. Thanks..

This tune exactly as played here, was on the Coral Lp called
"Lawrence Welk Presents Pete Fountain" an LP worth looking
for.

@greenturtle84 I first heard him at a car show in Washington, D.C. where I grew up at the age of 6 (1958). I wanted to play clarinet from then and just picked it back up and am learning all of his tunes. I got distracted with the tenor sax and flute but really love the clarinet.

Pure style!, dam i was born in the wrong era.
this guy has got awesome style with the glasses, chin strap and the smerk tops it off.

More like a hair-don't, but who gives a sht when
he's playing.

Yep,He did wear a toupe, but I guess he got tired of it.

I like Pete's hair-do in this video.

I've loved Pete ever since I learned about him from the Lawrence Welk Show about 46 years ago. I still play a glass mouthpiece on my clarinets on account of his sound! Glad to see he still sounds just as beautiful and swings just as effortlessly!
He had proved himself by then and didn't need to impress anybody with his looks.

Not to mention he must have gotten tired wearing contact lenses by this time. And who could blame him? 50's contacts were large, very hard, and very uncomfortable!
