It varies. You know, there's a buggy driver who says she can hold her breath for two minutes. I don't know about all that. But when I was a kid and I was in junior high school, I used to hold my breath for nickels, you know, and getting, you know, and I made a lot of money, you know, doing it. So I have, you know, it was no problem putting it in the clarinet.

Matter of fact, but it has to be a high note because they don't take that much wind. You know, it couldn't be a low note. I couldn't possibly do that on a low note because, you know, it takes too much wind. But with those high notes, sometimes, you know, instead of taking a breath at the end of it, then, you know, I have to release.

Yeah, it's called West Africa, and it's absolutely wonderful. It was a joint collaboration, but I just came up with the melody and the words, which came really easily because of what Lawrence established in the piece already.

And even listening to it, you know, I tear up because so much of him went into it and you can hear it. I mean, I can see him in the studio, you know, because he was supposed to be doing harmonies. And he said, you're going to think I'm crazy, but this is what I'm feeling. And it just went on and it's just beautiful, just beautiful. Doreen Ketchins, thank you so much. Thank you.
