Dick,
Thanks for the reply & the compliment. It's nice to be appreciated for
one's musicology background even if I make most of my income these days from
(God forbid), Trombone & Tuba playing-sorry Klarinetists. But as an
Orchestral person, I appreciate all instruments, if all instruments
sounded the same (just as if all peolpe looked the same), we would have
one "heck" of a boring world out --there.
