Klarinet Archive - Posting 000643.txt from 1996/03

Recently I came across an article from The Clarinet (Winter 1954-5)
entitled "The 'Upside-Down' Mouthpiece" by James Collis. On pages 26 and 27
Collis names Gino Cioffi and Michael Fusco as 'reed-above' practitioners.
Since I am researching the 'reed-above' embouchure I was very excited to
read this article!

Does anyone out there know if these guys are still alive? I would be very
grateful for some leads concerning this! Are there any recordings available
of these players? How would I go about finding some ex-pupils of theirs to
interview?

Thanks heaps in anticipation,
Best wishes,
Ingrid Elizabeth
