For those who love that obscure beast - the alto clarinet - Steve Fox built an alto for me a couple of years ago (if you click on his sponsor link at the top of this page and look at the artist clarinets you will find pictures of the beautiful instrument that he made for me). Last week the wind symphony that we both play in, premiered a new concerto for alto clarinet and wind symphony with Stephen as the soloist playing the instrument that he built for me. The piece is called Seven Deadly Sins, composed by Michael Purves-Smith and it is not a piece for the faint of heart for either the soloist or the ensemble (in fact Michael has noted it as "advanced" for both). Steve did a fabulous job in last weeks performance and we will be performing it again tommorrow (May 7th) afternoon. It has been such an exciting process, seeing this instrument and piece come to life, one that I will always be grateful to have been a part of. Can't wait to get my alto back so I can play it again!
