Hi Sue,

Mine are all for clarinet in Bb. I spoke to the people at the University
of Maryland / ICA library and was told that there is no specification on
the scores of clarinet pitch, so I am assuming that they are as I have on
the pieces I own (which are edited). You and Audrey and I played the F
major set that night we played in your hotel room. That edition is Urtext
and is in fact for Bb clarinets. You can go to the ICA web site and access
anything in the University of Maryland Music Library. You can even borrow
from it. Just go to this address: http://www.lib.umd.edu/help.html. Let
me know if you need more help.

I also wanted to let you know that Rebecca had her baby, a girl, Kendall
Marie Descalzi on June 12th. She is at home and you can reach her at

I went to OK University's Clarinet Symposium a few weeks ago with Annie and
Audrey and had a blast. If Atlanta is out of the picture next year, you
might want to try OK. It is very inexpensive and every bit as nice as
Fest, just on a smaller scale. It is all in one building which is very
convenient. Hope everything is well.
