Barney Bigard

[Marco Muttinelli]

In assoluto il mio clarinettista preferito.
Un musicista di gigantesca statura che non ha mai fatto la prima donna, al contrario a lui piaceva quasi scomparire ma nel contempo tesseva tele incredibili che riuscivano a fondere perfettamente le note di tutti gli altri musicisti.
Un ricamatore, un sarto che amava la musica e dalla quale era contraccambiato pienamente.
