Re: Being a "Mature" clarinetist

I read Jerry Pournelle's comments some years ago in his "Computing at Chaos Manor" column some years ago, which has lead me to trifocal computer glasses, with an "executive" (large) patch, moved up, so that the intermediate correction is straight ahead. This is great for working on a computer, or at my desk, but I have to move my head down slightly to use the distance correction.

For music, I have like a pair of single-vision music glasses with the intermediate distance correction. Seeing the music from all angles is no problem. Near-sighted, I can take them off to adjust my reed. But, the conductor is a little out of focus (is this a disadvantage?).
