Subj: [kl] Oklahoma U Clarinet Symposium
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2004 16:57:57 -0400

Understood -- scheduling something like this is difficult. I wasn't
trying to assign blame. By the way, in the schedule so far there's a
lot of bass clarinet, which is nice; they were rather scarce in what I
saw of last year's symposium, except for Ron Odrich's wonderful recital.
