Re: Ivo and Yuri

I just returned home from the Ivo/Yuri show here in Minneapolis.

It was a rather different affair than the one you attended, Steve.

Carol did announce some things and sing a bit in the first half (one of my favorite songs, BTW, "Lenorije Chaje") and also in the second half. In the second half some of the chairs around the edges had been removed for dancing, but I spent most of my time in my front-row-center seat.

AND!!! I finally got to see Ivo himself do the "incredible shrinking clarinet" bit as nobody else can do...

What he does with just a mouthpiece (& reed) I wish I could do with my whole clarinet!!! And at one point he even turned the mp around and either blew through the bottom or sucked in, vibrating the reed in a really really cool way!!!

If you can make it to any of their shows, I highly recommend it!!!
