That is a scene I would have enjoyed watching. I hasten to add it would almost certainly have ended very badly for the performance of your piece, but it would definitely have made for some grand theater. The effect does *not* produce enough sound to project off the stage unless you do something besides merely "blow air through the instrument". Inverting the mouthpiece is imo the most effective way to make it project, and it has the added bonus of being easy to control in a wide dynamic range. Obviously ymmv. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
