Abstract "The philosophical, musical, personal and scientific basis for the author's particular approach to reed-making. The importance of the communication of being human as expressed through the arts in general and music in particular. Knowing, not knowing and intimacy as aspects of good reed-work. The method of building reeds which are both beautiful to hear and comfortable to play is introduced. The concept of the distribution of the cane affects the tone quality and ease of playing is introduced. Reeds are seen as interconnected to our concept of sound musicianship and our grounding in the physical world"-- Provided by publisher.
