Charlie Melk of Charlie's Brass Works, Gary Radtke of GR Technologies, and Pierre Allard will be at the 2010 Chicago Brass Festival on Saturday March 20th.
We will be running a clinic titled, The Scientific Approach To Selecting
The Proper Equipment For You! This one hour clinic will start at 11am on the 20th.
We will also be there with a comprehensive set of mouthpieces that you can run through some playing tests.
The exhibit area runs from 9 to 4 pm.
This is an excellent oppurtunity to bring your trumpets, cornets, and flugels to play some mouthpieces and get your questions answered.
Charlie can evaluate issues with your horns.
This is really a special oppurtunity for those that would like to hear a GR clinic, this is the first time in 4 years that GR will be out of his shop doing a clinic.
The Chicago Brass Festival is very reasonably priced event and there is a good lineup of performers.

Wish I could be there. Sounds really interesting 
If you guys ever come to a brass festival in Europe (specially Belgium or The Netherlands),
please let us know too. I think your clinics would get a big audience
Good luck at the Chicago Brass Fest!
Kurt
