This is the gentleman who gave me my first clarinet lessons and someone who still teaches by his example that we should play for the love of the music.

A clarinet-playing accountant - now that gives me a ray of hope, except that he has a wife to care for his home. In my home I'm the wife - that's kind of throws cold water on the idea!

Very touching....another great musician from Indiana. But how about that bit about BG giving him a record! Also the comment about great musicians who couldn't read music. Thanks
