Hello again,
I was a subscriber over the summer, but left my job in Cambridge, MA to move across the country to the cental valley in California. Now here I am again back on line! I play all of the woodwinds (some people out here call me a "doubler") and am performing in some groups in the central valley. At present, I am concentrating on bassoon.

I enjoyed reading the Contrabass-L digest when I was receiving it and look forward to receiving it again.

Cheers,
-Mike Mori


Welcome back, Mike!

Whereabouts in the central valley are you?

Grant,

I could try writing to Mr. Leblanc about whether the instruments are still at Leblanc France and are still playable and ask him about this project. He is retired (I assume) now so I would also have to write to someone else about the recording idea but I am sure that I could manage that. It might be possible to have any non-subcontra pieces recorded in the States and the others (the important ones!) in France.

Incidentally, the 3 Stravinsky pieces might do for the B Flat and A Clarinets as they are a classic and also short!

Francis,

Unless someone has a "tighter" contact, I'd say go ahead. We'll all appreciate it!
