Why not treat it like Algebra: T123 where T = Bb
Or perhaps even better: Bb - 123 F - 123 A - 12 F ex. - 12 -William -----Original Message----- From: Dan Phillips <[email protected]> To: The Horn List <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Jun 7, 2011 9:47 am Subject: [Hornlist] Interesting IHS Forum post Ricardo Matoshinos has made an interesting post on the IHS Forum (http://www.hornsociety.org/en/network/ihs-forum) about notation of horn fingerings using T to indicate Bb horn. He makes the following statement: "Today most of the world play mostly in Bb-F horn instead of the traditional F-Bb so now in fact thumb means F horn..." While I certainly agree that T notation is ambiguous and should, for that reason, be avoided in any kind of international context, I wonder if the above statement is true?
