Re: Great Week back in london

Thanks for the help on the bass clarinet. It looked to have three metal stripes on the upper part of the upper joint, near the neck. They seemed to have no noticable use apart from tonal, so what you said makes perfect sense. I also read at the concert that Evan Ziporyn will be playing again this saturday in london for the bbc, well worth going to if you have a chance. The other bass clarinetist on the night also looked to be playing an old selmer too, are they the instrument of choice at the moment?

Mikey, thanks for your message, it must have been quite a treat to play with those guys. A quick question about them though: what basset was Orpen playing on? I was way too far away to tell. Also, I'm sure Harper was playing on a gold ligature! I have never seen one before, and while being visually pleasing, I was wondering if you knew his logic behind using it.

This week I am off to see the lso, the philharmonia and another young player at the wigmore hall. London.....
