Re: Buffet Reed Socket Depths...

Chris, I haven't played in any bands/orchestras for eons - not since I was a student at Southampton. I was in the University orchestra for 4 years, played in a wind quintet for 3 of those and did some paid engagements when home during the holidays. Of course becoming a 5th year medic and then houseman largely stopped me playing completely. But a few years ago I thought I'd start again - found that my old oboe was beyond repair and got the Buffet. Subsequently I've acquired 2 more oboes and now 2 cors (S5 and S2). Over the last 2 years I've gone entirely mad and started learning bassoon, as well as violin & viola (!) and am about to throw some clarinet into the mix.
Had I seen about the Bournemouth rusty musicians concert in time I might well have gone along - the problem next year might be which instrument to choose though...

Mike
