Sorry, we (special myself) have different margins. Notes above g1 (2nd line from bottom) are still best on F-horn up to written c2 or d2 or e2. Note that the d1 as open F-horn-note is a perfect lucid note, full of light. If one does switch to the Bb-side above c2, why not.
And your "over & over & over again ad nauseam" cannot be accepted. It is our duty in the pit, to support the singers. We horn players act as some kind of tin viola. Listen to the wonderful singer parts & play your accompaniment accordingly nice, thoughtful & with feelings. You will enjoy it as I did finally after many years getting very bored by this kind of accompaniment playing in all the Verdi, Donizetti etc. ============================================================ ========================================= -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 14, 2005 7:51 AM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Fingerings I do not either. In fact, the F side is very handy. I'm currently playing principle in La Traviata (lots of soft piano attacks above G in the usual B horn range) and knowing how to play the F side helps so much better. Especially to get a softer and more in tune sound on short pp C-Ab attacks (and even D and Db/C#) - especially when you have to play them over and over and over and over and over again ad nauseum. -William In a message dated 10/14/2005 1:44:46 A.M.
