Well, I've probably gone out and tried practically every ligature that has
hit the streets in the last twenty-five years.....Seems as though I keep on
returning to my old friend, the Bonade inverted ligature. Call me
sentimental, OK? With other ligatures, I may think or feel that something is
different or "improved".....but in really listening--and having my colleagues
listening--I discover that Monsieur Bonade is all I really need! More
importantly, I like it and nobody's complaining!

But if anyone here is interested in viewing my ligature museum, give me a
holler!
