I am not agreeing with either one in this case. There seems to be a lot of
bickering and fighting on the Klarinet list recently. I wish it would stop
and people would direct their energies into positive discussion or helping
others. The music store in my area said he went through three clarinet
teachers and said they can be a difficult lot. He then mumbled something
under his breath about them being like hot house flowers. I am beginning to
wonder now.

Regards,
Laine
