Well, darn! I missed your musette discussion. I just published a new book on the musette and the dances. If only I had tuned in, I might have been able to include some of your comments as contribution. So, I’ll listen tonight and see what I missed. Perhaps, in a 2nd edition, I can add more to the book. Thank you for providing this chat room. I think you’re providing a great service by holding these dialogues. Sheri PS, I’ll send you the E-book. hope your address is somewhere on the website…
