"This" is "I don't recall any classical clarinetist using vibrato".
IME, many classical clarinetists use vibrato, albeit, very subtlety. You must listen carefully. To me, it's like saying Emma Kirkby does not use vibrato but of course she does, just not as much as say, Barbara Bonney.
Oh well, I guess I've made a mountain out of a molehill since I love the clarinet.

I personally like the trumpet..... A good principal trumpeter IMO has more impact on an orchestra's "sound" than any other player.
Not to say other musicians don't have impact..... I think the flute, for example, can really impact Schumann orchestral works..... Clarinet has a big role in Dvorak's "New World" Symphony..... And horns, of course, for Richard Wagner.
They have no idea how to produce it, it mars Pitch, sounds sour, and is totally annoying.
Check out Richard Stoltzman...
Swing Players got it, but it doesn't translate.
Check out David Oppenheim, who recorded the Brahms and Mozart Quintets with the Budapest String Quartet for Columbia in the early sixties. He recorded the Stravinsky Octet and Histoire du Soldat with the composer conducting in the mid 50s, also for Columbia, and was in the Stokowski Orchestra for some of his early RCA recordings in the late 40s and early 50s, with notable solos in the Nutcracker Suite and Swan Lake. Best of all imo was his Shepherd on the rock with Dorothy Maynor, who sings the best version I've heard by far. He recorded Shepherd a second time with a German soprano, but that isn't quite as good.
