Pay it forward....sorta

Author: JJAlbrecht  Date:   2010-04-23 19:46 Last weekend, I was going through a junk drawer and throwing things out. I came across a sealed box of Mitchell Lurie Premium 3.5 reeds and most of a box of V12 #3 reeds, both which are a tad soft for me. I bought them ages ago, wwhen I had just resumed playing. Well, there's a new guy sitting in my section in our adult community band, who is now just returning to to playing the instrument after a number of years. Rather than can the reeds, I brought them to our last concert on Sunday, and gave them to him. I got a nice e-mail back the other day. He told me the new reeds have already made an improvement in his sound. He was playing a little too soft of a reed, and these are better suited to him. It felt good to do something so simple that substantially helped a fellow clarinetist. Jeff
