Subj: Lou Polcari's comments about instrument substitution
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 1995 11:54:16 -0400

Lou commented on the use of the A clarinet in place of the B-flat (and
I presume vice-versa). I think that those who find his remarks
intriguing should realize that this has been an ongoing disucssion on
KLARINET for about two years; i.e., the use of the clarinet called for
by the composer or the one preferred by the player.

It would be worthwhile for those interested to do a search of the
KLARINET data base using the words "clarinet" and "subsitution" and
then catching up on what has been said.

There is a lot of heat in those discussions but also a lot of light.
