Steve is well-known to many of us, he has a booth at one or more of the
clarinet festivals each year, and he used to post here on Klarinet until
he got too busy with his clarinet business. He builds custom
instruments of high quality, including Dan Leeson's bassett with the
beautiful wood and gold plated keywork (the mere sight of which causes
women to swoon at Dan's feet), and Steve is also known for his
reproductions of period instruments. In addition to his musical
skills, Steve is a kind-hearted and sociable person.
