Subj: [kl] Paganini Variations/Barnes (was Writing Across the Break)

Not that anyone asked, but I felt like doing it anyway...

http://www.columbia.edu/~schiffer/barnes.html

It is an original composition by Barnes, and the solo in question was
played on a contraBASS clarinet (wood too, not metal).

I'll probably take this down in a week, so if you want to download it, do
it soon. And please let me know if you encounter any problems...

Thanks,

-jeremy
