I went to Interlochen with Bob's son, Paul, and we were both in concert band together. I remember one day my freshman year, I got put on bari sax on a particularly challenging piece, and there were a couple of sections I hadn't gotten together quite right which the conductor was isolating along with the bassoons. Much to my own terror, it was parents weekend and when I looked behind me I saw Bob sitting maybe 20 ft behind me watching me mess up this line over and over again! I saw him a few times over my years at Interlochen as he would come and visit and do concerts and he was always such a humble and knowledgeable personality.

I had similar experiences as a musician.

Any chance you have the titles of the exercise books mentioned around 18:00?

[@Joffewoodwinds]

I believe that what Bob was refrerring to can be found in Kal Opperman's book: Contemporary Chordal Sequences for Clarinet. The more valuable books I believe are the Modern Daily Studies for Clarinet, Books 1-3. -Ed
