Speaking of Beethoven's 9th...... While I personally would always try to use the 4th player for the solo part, I could conceivably see why others choose not too. Of course, there are those that just love continually focusing the spotlight on themselves. That's another matter entirely.
So, I hope that answers some questions. All the best, Eldon Matlick<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< I have had the pleasure of hearing Eldon nail the 4th horn solo in Beethoven's 9th. Just flat outright georgious playing and tone quality. This was in 1974 or 75 when he was still a pup.
