Mark,

> Plays many kinds of music -- I guess I can play something classical, fake my way through a little, Dixieland, Jazz, Klezmer.  I've no idea what to play in the way of Pop or other genres.

If I remember correctly, there's a clarinet solo in the Beatle's When
I'm 64. Also the disco tune Let's All Chant.
But I'm no expert on modern pop music, sorry.

> Can sound like different animals or whatever

I imagine it would be possible to do something sufficiently like an
elephant roar on bass clarinet, based on what I've heard Henri Bok do
in the past.
Or, at least, I imagine it would be possible for someone like Henri
Bok to do something sufficiently like an elephant roar ... ;-)

Cheers,
Bernie
