My dear L. Omar, if I may respectably agree to disagree with certain aspects of your admirable statement, my objections are these: You state,” I still feel….”, yet shouldn’t you say, “I think…? Or “ I know….? ” Moreover, in your support of the scientific approach to instrument making you neglect the artisan, a person who is part artist and part craftsman, and whose uncanny skills produce great instruments, should one mention Stradivarius on a clarinet board? Artisan’s must be aware of the physical properties of the materials they use, but we do rely on them to have an artistic sensitivity to these materials that the rest of us lack.
