Clariphonic

The Ensemble

The Clariphonic Clarinet Ensemble was founded by Shaun Guzmán and is our student-based chamber ensemble for clarinetists in the San Antonio metro area.

This student based clarinet ensemble has changed throughout the years. Starting off as the Monticello Clarinet Choir to Hashtag Flats (#bbbb) and finally the Clariphonic Clarinet Ensemble. This musical outlet offers challenging music, ensemble building/blending, developing young musicians ears, and encourages clarinet camaraderie within the studio. We also offer fellow clarinet choir enthusiasts to join our ensemble!

We recently performed at the Celebrating National Chamber Music Month concert by Adelante Winds. We’ll be back during late fall to bring you more music!
