Hans P offered > better leave the horn alone, put it on the wall or > in the shrank, use it for practising at home occasionally,
David G wondered in the *shrank* ??? What's a shrank? Help! ********** David, please forgive Hans if he did not offer an idiomatic translation. He of course meant shrink, which is the proper translation of Psychoanalytiker. Some horns are so precious that players only play them while undergoing therapy. Although it is well known that Freud wrote about the problems of horn players (The horn and its discontents), it is not so widely known that he experimented with horn design. Although few of them were produced, the Sigmund model, with its distinctive shrink wrap, is still much sought after by collectors. Gotta go, Cabbage _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] set your options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
