In my mailbox today was a slick catalog of musical instruments
from Cascio Music Company (http://www.interstatemusic.com/).

Although not listed in the index, I was pleased to discover that
"old fashioned" wind instruments are offered: Leblanc, Buffet,
Gemeinhardt, Blessing, Bach, and Yamaha ("Call for price.").

I can buy a Vito baritone sax, with low 'A' key, for $3288.
(That's two to four times the price of a keyboard synthesizer.)

Only three pages are devoted to wind instruments; the remainder
of the 130-page catalog describes electronic instruments and
performing accessories.  Signs of the times...
