Yikes! I started this silly "Rachel, you are wrong" thread, by intending to poke humor at Rachel's, "If I can do it, anyone can do it", regarding playing the Brandenburg 1 and other feats on an 8D. I intended to make humor regarding Rachel's challenge by twisting the logic to be-- I wouldn't because I can't, not because I won't. Rachel had generously suggested that anyone can play as well as she can, and I poked humor at that. So, John, to set the record straight, regardless of what I wrote, I am not wrong about Rachel. She has shown herself to be a generous contributor to the horn community and has much to share with us. Keep posting, John, and we will find out what you are all about! Ha! Tip of the day-- develop a more powerful fortissimo by using the inner embouchure muscles to open the embouchure orifice. You will feel the lips curl out a bit. This works especially well for playing fortissimo in the lower register. Larry, a 60th percentile amateur horn player __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
