Henry LazarusHenry Lazarus (1 January 1815 - 1895) was the leading British clarinet virtuoso of the 19th century. Raised as an orphan in the Royal Military Asylum in Chelsea, he there learned the instrument from the bandmaster John Blizzard. He later studied under Charles Godfrey, bandmaster of the Coldstream Guards. His solo debut came in 1838. Lazarus was professor of clarinet at the Royal Academy of Music from 1854 to 1895. He wrote a Method for the Clarinet based on the Boehm System, although he himself never switched. Works include Fantasia on Favorite Scotch Melodies. He also played the basset horn.
