 Re: Temperature for outdoor playing

I've never heard of a minimum temperature contract stipulation. What would be the rationale? It's slightly easier to imagine a maximum temp limit.

Our community band plays for the town tree lighting every December. It being Vermont, the temperature is sometimes well below freezing. Coming up through school in the '60s & '70s I played my wood clarinets for these events (my grandfather's Buffet R13 and then a Selmer 10) without their cracking. Now I use a plastic horn.

Fingers get cold; fortunately the carol arrangements are pretty short. The residents gather and sing along, and it's good. The only mechanical problem I had was a tenon cork once came unglued while assembling the clarinet, which was real cold after I'd carried it 20 min. to the site with the temp around 19F.
