About the cover: Pour Toi, a lithograph portrait of Desire Dihau, by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec (Musee Toulouse-Lautrec, Albi, France). Dihau (1833-1909), the well-known Parisian bassoonist, was the main subject of Edgar Degas' painting, L'Orchestre de l' Opera, a reproduction of which was the cover for the Vol. 8, No. 1, Spring, 1983, issue of The Double Reed. He was an obvious friend of many of the French Impressionist artists of his time. (See also the article by Helene Couturier, page 2 of the same issue of The Double Reed.) Many thanks to Phil Gottling for his submission of the Lautrec lithograph. Ed.
