Many thanks to David B. Niethamer for the interesting write-up about this
recital, and for taking the trouble to go into detail. I wanted very much to
attend, after reading a preview in the _Washington Post_, but couldn't make
it. The _Post_ reporter mentioned the use of clarinets as percussion
instruments, something that hadn't occurred to me before. We've had quite a
week of percussion locally, with the National Symphony Orchestra's
presentation of a special rhythm festival featuring Evelyn Glennie, and now
clarinets as rhythm instruments, of all things.
