He might welcome a bit of "sweat equity." I'm just too chicken to risk
offending him by telling him what I'm doing, although if he saw and smelled
the globs of fungus I scrubbed out of the C Melody sax yesterday, he'd
probably be glad I didn't bring him this job! If I find a good horn with a
bad dent, I may take my chances, because I don't have the equipment or the
know-how to bump out a dent.Lelia

Subject: SarrusFS page upOK, the "sarrusophone for sale" page is now posted at the original URL,
http://www.contrabass.com/pages/gd-sarrus.html. I've corrected it to
reflect that the Gautrot instrument is probably an Eb baritone, rather than
a bass.If anyone else is interested, please let me know right away. I'll be leaving for the airport early this afternoon, and will be unreachable until next Monday. The last instrument I was interested in was gone in a matter of a few days: he *might* hold one, if contacted soon enough.
I don't expect any sort of commission. I'm not posting the owner's telephone number only because I don't want him deluged with calls. If you *are* seriously interested (and I can give you an idea off-line what constitutes "serious"), please feel free to contact me.
Enjoy!
Grant

You can try going to their web site, www.musitek.com,
but, it kept locking up my Netscape when I tried to
access it.Stephen Rea <srea@uaex.edu> http://www.uaex.edu/srea

Is there any sort of OCR prorgram out there for musical notation, something that can a graphics file of sheet music and interpret it, do stuff like transpose? I am really sick of transposing by hand, because mistakes happen (most embarassing; stopping in the middle of a rehearsal of Take Five to try to figure out what a A#Maj chord is. Stupid, Iknow, but just the sort of obvious thing to get you when the caffeine wears off), and it just takes a long time, as I have to do a lot of it (we are getting music from one book in concert key). Somewhen must have put some sort of share ware out by now, right? Thanks for the help...
