Sounds good to me, Dan! I own all those except the basset, and that's the
next clarinet I want to buy, although I am sure it will not be an easy thing to
obtain, judging from all the comments made here about it.

I do have a really great alto clarinet...couldn't I just transpose the basset
part? hehehee
