Howard -

Thanks to you, I am well aware of Michael Kibbe. I just performed his "Serenade" for 2 Bb clarinets in my recital at Heidelberg College. I bought the music from you last summer at U of Oklahoma.

The "Serenade" went over very well in performance, and I encourage people to buy and perform it. It's fun for the players, enjoyable for the audience, and contain a lot of musical value.

Nice to know that Mr. Kibbee also has some great WWQ pieces for us to enjoy.
