It wasn't meant in a derogatory way, Hans :) Even with drone parts I still listen, it's always been my policy - musicality everywhere when playing any music. -William In a message dated 10/14/2005 2:45:15 A.M. Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
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. _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
