Thank you for the information. Your information is
quite helpful for us. Now we see what we should do!

I saw the NMSO's performance calendar. It was just
two week ago! Unfortunately I am in Japan where it is
far from New Mexico. Mmm....

The symphony is really dificult to play for an amateur
orchestra: needed wide range, critical intonation (as you
mentioned), very long tone in Bass Clarinet (It seems the
bass clarinet player is needed to do circulate breathing).
But I "will" enjoy it! ;-)

Many thanks,
