Of course. Many of these legendary clarinetists are now very old or
dead. It is self evident they used older Buffet or other models. It would
have been difficult to use today's clarinets ...

>How many CDs have you made and where might I find a copy?

Specious and argumentative question, don't you think?

A question I'd like to ask:

How many of today's "legends" (I know - a bit of an oxymoron) are playing
on old Buffets? If any are, why aren't _those_ clarinets "blown out"?
