 sterilizing reeds
Author: pliscapoivre

Dear all,

I had a cold a few weeks ago, and I've just come down with a (very minor) sinus infection. I want to get back to playing tomorrow. A few questions for on this topic:

1. How long do germs live on reeds? (Of course one surely puts nasty germs on reeds before realizing one has a cold.)

2. How do you disinfect your reeds after having a cold? My teacher, Ronald Roseman, routinely dipped reeds in grain alcohol when sharing with us. I haven't been able to find the stuff in any state or country I've lived in since. Maybe you can offer some alternatives.

Thanks!

Plisca
