Might be too much work and too much expense for me to go to for this 
group - quinces aren't cheap around here - and i have to feed at 
least small amounts to around a dozen people. How many quinces do you 
estimate i'd have to cook so everyone could get a small ladle full?>>>>

Black Bean sauce for the pasta, and about 1/2 quince per person would be plenty ofr tasting, maybe even 1/4.  they are the size (around here) usually of a fist.
