Sorry Neil, but I reread the original memo to assure that I did not
misunderstand it and, in my opinion, what I suggested he said is exactly
what he said. It may be a sidebar issue, but that the assertion was
made appears to me to be unequivocal, namely that clarinet selection is
made on the basis of sound character. Written keys were not part of the
assertion, only the pitch of the clarinet.
