As an arranger, I have made it my business to know what ALL the
instruments can do. I have an advantage though in having played all the
wind instruments professionally apart from bassoon and french horn. I've
even tried tenor and bari saxhorns. My main instruments now are bass
trombone and tuba, but writing takes up most of my time.

The only percussion I have played are vibraphone and simple LA such as cow
bell and claves.

Cheers, Adrian
