The publicity material mentions Bedouin as a student of Jean Tubery and Jean-Pierre Canihac and represents the new generation of French comettists. Well, considering that Jean Tubery is not exactly hobbling to the senior citizens' center, it is a bit of a shock to realize that there is now a generation of his students rising among the cornetto ranks.
