 Re: reeds in elevation of 4500 ft.

I travelled from sea level NZ in winter to summer Salt Lake City to perform in Clarinetfest 06. I was on tour with NZ Opera in the south island (coldest part) performing every night of the week up until the day before i flew to SLCity.
My reeds became slightly harder by maybe a quarter of a size, maybe not even that much. Beware- this will make your "dead reeds" (worn down at the end of their life) play very well.... for about the first 5 minutes of playing time, and then they die again.
hope this is useful information
