Larry, this does not work. Why gripping so high (really high) ? If you make a mistake in Konzertstueck, nobody will complain. But if you play Oberon a thousand times without any lightest scratch on the beginning, nobody would talk, but if you ruin it just ONCE, all people would speak about it for generations & tell you, that there was a hornplayer tenthousand years ago, who never failed ....... (quot. Bruno Jaenicke or/and Emil Wipperich)
So, improving the horn does not bring that much, if the lips are not prepared right or the playing technique is not up to the task ....... ============================================================ =============================================== -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Jellison Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2006 7:49 AM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: [Hornlist] The Pope Effect Ken wrote: "I guarantee you that if someone pays a large amount for a repair on their horn - they'll be influenced to think that their instrument feels different." ________________________________________________ That's great, Ken, and gives us new hope. How much will you charge to fix my horn so that with my lips it can play the 1st horn part of Konzertstuck?
