Actually, Craig, I'm not using a search method for these new pages. They'll
be a tree structure of links - with major groupings by instrumentation,
publisher, composer, composer's sex, composer's birth/death dates, etc.
Searches are too structured for casual browsing, and aren't as conducive to
"what ifs" ("what if I decide to play marimba instead of glockenspiel - are
there other compositions available?" - "Gee, my buddy has a hecklephone -
any clarinet compositions call for one?" (yes)) .

Cheers,
Mark C.
