"Your last sentences made me curious, Keith! A"basset joint"! Is this a sort
of a prolongation for an ordinary clarinet - to get ekstra deep tones?"

Finn - To learn more about the basset clarinet and in particular, Stadler's
basset clarinet as made by Theodore Lotz, a good place to start is Pamela
Poulin's Eastman thesis, "The Basset Clarinet of Anton Stadler and its
Music". You can download this paper (in two parts) at:
https://urresearch.rochester.edu/fileDownloadForInstitutionalItem.action?ite
mId=5327&itemFileId=8221
(Dan Leeson is acknowledged in the preface as being a scholar of great
service to the author.)

PAMELA;S THESIS CONTAINS A PICTURE (ACTUALLY A SILHOUETTE) OF STADLER. IT
IS THE ONLY ONE I KNOW OF THAT EXISTS SHOWING AN APPROXIMATION OF STADLER;S
EXTERNAL FEATURES.
