I received an e-mail from one of the band director lists asking if I had ever
heard of NYP clarinets. I have not. Has anyone? I wonder what the letters
stand for (Now Your Problem??? Not Yet Playable??) Also, I was asked about
a Delphi clarinet. Some of my band director friends are starting to see a
few of these instruments that uninformed parents are buying from e-bay
showing up in their band halls. Someone said that Wal-Mart is starting to
sell instruments and another said that Hastings Bookstore is selling flutes,
clarinets, and trumpets for under $200.00 (not an advertisement!!). You get
what you pay for.
