[TPIN] Bach stuff

[Tim Swensen]

Jon, I think the 37 still is the most common for classical playing, and all other playing too,
  for that matter.
   
  I play a 43 lightweight and have found it a very good all around horn also.  Lots of good
  choices in the Bach line.  The 72 is not a bell I warm to, however.

  The normal weight 72 is generally the Bach of choice for classical these 
days. Great sound and response.
