Tom,

Finally you wrote back! I am glad you did.

Okay, you know I lost my former house, the one you visited when my mom was still alive to foreclosure. I also lost three very nice
clarinets, all Buffet and they were A, C, and B-flat.

I recently read where Mozart composed several pieces in the key of G.

Now, if you like to teach me again, I am studying James Collis' "Modern Course" and it is quite good.

But I am very interested in learning classical so I might play with an ensemble.

I know that I am a fool, but all I have left is the ebonite student model I bought back in 1988, and learned several nice tunes on
the instrument.

But Tom, I really don't like to be chided, and as for a plan and a progress, all I have is myself to teach me, but I am always
looking for a good and empathetic instructor.

Tzedakah and Chesed go a long way.

Rommel

Rommel, why do you need any clarinet but a good Bb? Get a good basic set up and learn to use it. Don't get hung up into the idea of
buying game. You need a plan, a process then you will progress. Later Tom Puwalski
