Bosey & Hawkes have a big shop in 295 Regent Street. It is very easy to
find, but don't expect too much from it. It is not that big.
I don't know if it is cheaper there to buy a clarinet. But I am sure that you
can find real bargains for music pieces.
You should go to Foyles. I don't remember the street name of it, but I think
I could find it. It is in a street with lots of shops where you can find
music. Oh, if you go to Foyles: take your time. You won't leave that
building in less than 3 hours.
