Bassanelli has terminal cancer, and says the case is her personal campaign for fair treatment of cancer sufferers.
Bassanelli did make her trip to Japan in 2002, and to other overseas destinations since, with insurance obtained through Mercantile Mutual - and, ironically, another underwritten by QBE and Mercantile Mutual in a joint venture.
Bassanelli said that being able to travel is very important when your time is limited.
The bassanelli are similar to the larger shawms in range and fingering but softer in sound.
The bore of bassanelli is straight and opens at the bottom; and these instruments only have one key.
The cant, which is the littlest of the bassanelli, is notably excellent to hear on the tenor part in ensembles in which all types and sets of instruments are used, for its tuning is rather accurate, and is similar to flutes in the execution of a tenor part.
