Just to correct a listserv issue--- they ARE spelled Lepic, it says so
on the Box. Tracy just made a typo. :)

I STILL LOVE THESE REEDS!!

It's gotta be the difference between german and french cut for me. :)
One of the reeds was actually cut sideways, which I found amusing. Going
from the 3 1/2 to 4 was a stretch for me, Tracy--- I'm worn out from
playing Schumann Fantasy Pieces all the way through-- but it's a
workout... Are you SURE you want to go from 4 1/2 to 5?!?! I guess I did
the same thing... Be prepared for a workout.

Ginger--
Thanks for responding. I just ordered a box too. I usually play on
Vandoren V12 size 4 1/2 but I got a size 5 in the Rue Lepig, because
they
don't make a size 4 1/2...it jumps from 4 to 5, which is strange.
Anyway,
from what you tell me this should sound OK.

Tracy
