I see there's a bass tarogato on eBay ( search for TAROGATO BASSE ) with just a day left. I don't suppose anyone's ever made a contrabass tarogato ???

I trust there is not a square edge on the rod end. I have also had great success with cyanoacrylate for gluing rubber to steel.  Will rip the rubber before coming apart.
For my bass clarinet peg I made a longer peg and made the end bigger so I could use a standard rubber foot. (3/4 ID crutch tip or pipe leg) That will not be wearing out anytime soon.

Subject: [CB] Contrabass Clarinet in NYPO?

Last evening, I heard a broadcast of a live performance by Kent Nagano and the New York Philharmonic Orchestra of Olivier Messiaen's Eclairs sur l'Au Dela. 
 
Can someone confirm that a contrabass clarinet playing a low concert Bb is part of that piece?
 
Thanks.
