Subj: [kl] Lending music?
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 13:50:29 -0500

As a followup to my own question, is it possible that professional
organizations would be in a position to loan music to amateur groups?

I was just thinking to myself sitting here that the local orchestras
near me might have a library of wind quintet music that I could
possibly borrow. But I was wondering if groups are inclined to do
that at all, or if the risk of having it lost would be too great?
