Tomorrow I'm off to Germany to eventually visit the
www.kontrabass-kaleidoskop.de course that will take place next week. Out in the middle of nowhere, for some reason; I can't bring my own double bass out into the frontier just like that, and now I realize i have forgotten to ask them about the possibilities of borrowing an instrument. Oh well. They have brought together a nice bunch of teachers this year anyway. Rabbath, Furtok, Tom Martin, teachers from Vienna and Mozarteum and whatnot. But most importantly, I might run into Anselm there! I'll say hi on behalf of all of you.
