John Chookasian in Fresno plays many different Eastern styles. One night he spent a whole set lecturing me from the stage on the crazy times and keys he was playing. 1/4 tone in this key, but the same 1/4 in this other one only 1/4 tone slightly sharp, then in another key that 1/4 tone would be very flat. My head was spinning!
John is a very nice guy and a real national treasure. I would love to see him performing more, but also doing lecture series in Eastern Clarinet.
Anyone got any ideas?
His number is listed in Fresno.
