Subj: Re: doubling instruments

My Band teacher says that when you double you become "a jack of all trades,
but a master of none". I don't think that thought is quite true. In Jazz
bands and other small enembles, it is extremly helpful to play more thatn one
instrument. I play 7 different instruments, and while I'm not the greatest on
all of them, I've played just as good as my fellow bandmates, sometimes
better
