Dan (and everybody),

I played Stephen Fox's basset horn last year in the Mozart Requiem and
_loved_ it - it's a gorgeous horn. Also met him a couple of years ago at a
convention and he's really nice, quiet, unassuming, knowledgable etc. I
think his email has been offered but here it is again just in case:
<104022.3105@-----. I hope you like his horn too, I'm sure he'd
love to spend more time making them and less time overhauling school-board
issue Bundys...

Glad you asked Luis too (I play his clarinets and studied with him years ago)!
