To all contrabass.com subscribers,
I am a new member, and thought you all might be interested in a
wonderful new tune to add to your repertoire of alto and bass flute
music.
Available on my website
www.altoflute.net, is a previously unknown solo
alto work titled "Moderato" by Vaclav Nehylbel. Nehylbel was a well
known composer of band pieces back when I was in high school. It had
been languishing in my library for several years and I happened to find
out the Nelhybel Collection in Pennsylvania knew nothing of its
existence. I contacted them, sent them a typeset copy, and they decided
it was just too short to publish (it's about 2 minutes long). I got
them to agree to let me distribute it free of charge to any interested
flutists. So, there it sits, just waiting to be downloaded by you. I
hope to perform it at the NFA convention this August, along with a new
piece Mike Mower is writing for me for solo alto and bass with flute
ensemble.
Have fun!
Christine Potter

Does anyone have any info on the progress of Buffet on producing
the BBb contrabass clarinet? The last I heard, they were in the
designing stages, but that was a year or more ago.
