Q: “Which is your main axe?”

A: “My main axe is probably going to be as alto, but if I had to give them all up … I play alto clarinet and flute. I play some tenor at home with my band, but I'm not really a tenor player. If I had it all to give up, I'd stay on the clarinet. It's the most demanding instrument.”
