Very shortly there will be excerpts of Sherman Friedland's "Concordia"
series of CDs on Sneezy. Probably Wav or some other free format
(possibly MP3 if I can find a free codec). The series (4 CDs) includes
pieces by Jean Coulthard, John Bavicchi, Thomas McGah, Jan Jarczyk,
Milhaud, Brahms, Copland, Kenneth Wolf, Dennis LeClair, Allan Crossman,
and Wolfgang Bottenberg. Many of these were world premiere recordings.
He's charging $40.00 & $6.00 S&H (USD) for the set of 4, or $10.95 &
$1.50 S&H each. You can see what the titles are (and the CD cover
artwork) at http://www.sneezy.org/sherman_friedland/ .

Along the same lines, there will be some excerpts from Abe Galper's
books on his site soon. Abe's determining what parts for me to copy and
include on his site. Abe's site is http://www.sneezy.org/avrahm_galper/
.

There's a number of other fine sponsors of this site - and I'm looking
for more! The cost is $50.00 a year to be included as a sponsor. You get
a link on the Sponsor's page (http://www.sneezy.org/clarinet/Sponsors/)
and an area for your business or homepage. Your link also gets randomly
selected for inclusion on the menu bar that appears on every page of the
Clarinet Pages (www.sneezy.org/clarinet) . I welcome anyone as a
sponsor, personal or business.

There will also be a section very shortly for piano and some
miscellaneous music; I bought out a store's stock of music before the
store went out of business. I have about 600 titles, most brand new,
that I'm selling for 1970s prices. Cash or check only, though (you send
me money, I ship the music). If you have any requests send them
privately to charette@-----. It'll be a while before I catch up and
have enough time to put the music list on-line.

Oh yeah - Sneezy.org is now a registered business in the state of
Michigan so I can legally do business :)
