You are absolutely welcome, Stephanie! Glad to have you aboard. I started
learning clarinet at age 50 after hearing so much beautiful sound emanating from
our local symphony orchestra, the Vancouver Symphony . I now take lessons with
its principal clarinetist and love everything about clarinet. We have
wonderful, very knowledgeable, helpful and even funny people on the list.
Anyone (like you) who is willing to spread more clarinetdom into the world is an
asset here!
