Re: Your clarinets after you die

I've had to retire from playing due to long term illness. I have high level instruments in several categories; have left instructions to my brother as to where those are to be consigned. But....there is no guarantee that he will outlive me. I've tried to sell some very good quality amateur stringed instruments, with zero interest shown by the buying public. I'd have to give them away; it appeals to me to give them to a local music program, except for the fact of how the students treat the instruments. They would be basically destroyed within one school year. No one in the family to leave them to, since none of the nieces or nephews are musical. This is a conundrum for me, too.
It just occurred to me that I could give them to a local church that has a fine orchestra....but there are no guarantees that anyone else will recognize that what they have is not just some piece of junk, or that they won't end up in some damp, moldy cellar.
