I agree with Hans Pizka with regard to aging and (still) playing the
horn. Early training is the key. Interestingly enough, that applied also
to athletics, and perhaps in an indirect way to everything in life. In
my case I practiced 1 1/2 hours a day from the age of 11 onwards. With
performance, orchestra practice, band practice during the school year,
and summer music camps there were times that I was playing more than six
hours a day. That builds muscles necessary to play long performances
without fatigue. Now at age 70 I can still keep up with younger horn
players, ar least for two hours. Regards.
