Glad to know that Kammermusik influence is spreading to Nebraska!

Well, now I AM bright red and not from exertion! Sorry about that going to
the entire list . . . that'll teach me to try and email so late at night,
especially after such a rehearsal!

Hokey Old Warhorse = La Forza del Destino.

Mark, trios sound great -- especially all on bass clarinets. But I've been
through Nebraska too many times to want to go back there *intentionally*. No
insult intended to any on the list from there!

Thanks for sharing, Marcia, intentional or not. Now you'll have to
identify the " Hokey Old Warhorse " for the whole list.

I've often wondered if there were a good name for the feeling you get
when you realize that you are suddenly very alone and wondering "is this
my big solo or am I just horribly lost".

Trios? I'm up for it! (If it's you Forest & I, I think western
Nebraska would be a good geographical compromise).
