Dear Mark Charette & Klarinet List Friends,
This is ANNIE, the clarinetist from Colorado Springs. A couple of
months ago I read an article in THE CLARINET about a Romanian
clarinetist, Ciprian Vasiliu, and I was so touched by his dedication to
his study of the clarinet, that I decided to send him my old Buffet
R-13. At that particular time, Ciprian was playing on an old beat up
student model, probably plastic. Ciprian and I have continued to
correspond, and I just got the following letter from him this morning. I
am going to wire him the $200 he asked for even though I am low on
funds. I have been planning to go to Norman for months and I have been
stretching my budget to afford the trip. I don't know if it is against
the rules of the Klarinet List to ask for "donations" or not. If anybody
out there would like to send me a few dollars, I would be glad to donate
any extra back to Sneezy. I apologize if I am offending anybody by
trying to get money for Ciprian. If anybody wants to help me, please
write to me and I will send you my mailing address. ANNIE

Dear Annie
I amwritting to you using this adress because is more
secure.
I have a lot of things to tell you .In yhe first place
i want to tell you that I have listened your C.D.You
have a very special sound,a very beutiful one .My
clarinet teacher and all my classmates were
delayted.Soft or powerfull(depends on what you are
playing) your sound is something very special.If you
have another materials with you please try to send .
Yesterday I have send to you a CD and a audio
cassete .On the audio cassete is me ,playing Mozart,
Poulenc Sonata,and a piece called Omage a de Falla by
Kovacs.
On the CD is the taragot player i told you about.I
hope you are going to like it.
Dear Annie,I want to yell you something and please do
not upset on me.You have done things for me that only
good friend does ,and you are my american friend.My
parents are praying for you in every sunday at the
church.To whom can I tell my problems if not to a
friend?
Dear Annie,I will start with the beginning.
One month ago, me and my friend Calmas, (the one with
the CD), have found an announcement made by a student
corporation who was sellecting students for working in
America.Working on the time of summer(july 1/september
22) in a entertaimennt park,and other jobs.
For me and my friend Calmas that announcement seemed
like a great opportunity to see America, to earn money
and especially for me to see you and to be able to
thank you personally for making my dream true(I have a
wonderfull clarinet thanks to you).
So we went to these student corporation and we have
gave an interview(a kind of exam,test).After two days
we saw the results and the both of us (me and
Calmas)were accepted.There were only 50 students
acceptes from almost 600 students.
The director of these student corporation told us
that we will work in America for the summer time(1 of
july/22 of september).He also told us that we will be
paid with 300 dollars for week(for all the time 3000
dollars,you realise dear Annie that for me is a huge
huge oportunnity).
But he tols also, and this is the big But,that we have
to pay to tha corporation until the 5 of june,500
dollars.(money for accomodation , food ,transport).
So, me and Calmas have begun a <running competition>
after sponsors.
Believe me dear Annie finding sponsor in Romania is a
Nightmare.I think i have knocked at over 500 doors.
Calmas was lucky.He have found sponsor for the all
amount,500 dollars.So he is going in America.
I was not so lucky.I found some sponsors who gave me
150 dollars.My father gave me all his salary,110
dollars.I have worked the nights in a gas station,so I
have another 40 dollars.Totally I have now, 31 may,
300 dollars.
Annie, please do not upset on me if I have the courage
to ask you if you can help me.
The limit(I mean the last day) for paying at the
corporation is 5 of june.
I have 300 dolllars.All I need is 200 dollars.I think
even in America 200 dollars are a lot of money.
No one is helping me even if I can give them back the
money from the first week in America.
Dear Annie,please help me if you can.I will pay all
the money back(200+120 clarinet taxes) in the first
week in America.
Please forgive me if I have upset you with my letter,
but you are my last chance.
I f you can help me please use Western Union,until the
5 of june,and do it on my name(Vasiliu George Ciprian)
If you can not help me ,please still be my friend.I am
waiting for your answer,on the internet.
God bless you Annie
Ciprian
