[Harp-L] Re: Music encyclopedia

[bon@xxxxxxxxxx]

Chris Bates said about the encyclopedia of musical instruments: 
The statement was made that in spite of virtuosos like Larry Adler, the 
instrument is largely regarded as a
toy!

This reminds of the time I played on Garrison Keillor as a guest and the 
"Coffe Club Orchestra" was taking the bus back to the airport.  Most of 
guys were people I knew from New York.  When I went to get on the bus Lou 
Soloff (trumpet with Blood, Sweat and Tears) yelled "Only people who play 
real instruments on this bus."  to which I replied, "Oh thanks for 
reminding me, that was close,  I almost got on the bus for people who are 
out of work!!"

Harmonically yours,
