 This is amazing. I sat down planning to just skim over the table of contents and see if I'd like to read any of it later, and I ended up reading 35 pages without even realizing it. Thanks for the link!

 This, along with Shannon Thompson's dissertation on Daniel Bonade, are must-reads for any clarinet performance major (past, present, or future). Two terrific contributions to the literature. 
 
BTW, I have a copy of a graduate research project about A. R. McAllister and the fantastic Joliet Township Band.  There are some really astounding stories out there and the treatise on Hasty joins the list.

 GREAT link -thanks! 
 
p.s. does anyone have the link for the Thompson/Bonade?  I can only get the reed chapter by Googling it.

 Mags, 
 
I bought my copy from University Microfilms and it was not that expensive. However, if you have a relationship of some kind (alumni, former faculty, current student. etc.) with a university, the library at that school can usually get teh dissertation via inter-library loan. This dissertation was from University of Texas and Shannon is at Western Carolina University. 
 
Here is a link http://www3.wcu.edu/~thompson/ and Chapter 1 is there. Her dissertation is really terrific.
