Good one, Lelia. You've heard of love at first sight, well, some have judgment
at first sight. But, "To each his own"

Welcome to you Doug. Where do you play or teach? What set up do you use? Where
can I hear some of your recordings? Where can I buy some of your personal
accompanied solo or quartet arrangements? Do you have any ex-students that went
on to be players of note, (no pun intended).
