If I recall correctly, I just took my hand out of the bell to grab my
    mute which was hanging on my wrist, and bent the pitches in tune with
    my lips.
    This, of course, is only possible in the low register, and is perhaps
    helped by playing a horn with fairly wide note slots.

       Hi Steve,
       thanks for your suggestions - I'm afraid I already have all that.  I
       was looking for a different solution for those particular passages,
    not
       that problem in general.
       Let's be honest, I looking for someone high up to tell me that
    everyone
       plays those four bars open.  :-)
       At the moment I have my mute on a string and am playing the low
    written
       B and D# with the mute half in.  I'm not sure that is the answer.
       Thanks for you reply,
       cheers,
       Lawrence
