Dear Colleagues,
Thank you so much for all the excellent information, advice and suggestions
regarding wooden mutes. To answer the one question posted, I am only using a
mute if/when it is indicated in the music. I greatly appreciate all the help,
and will purchase my new mute with confidence.
Best Wishes,

Colleagues,> Recently I borrowed a birchwood horn mute from a horn professor
(while travelling) to play some chamber music repertoire with strings. She
bought it overseas. It was handmade with no brand on it. I was really taken by
the lovely sound the wooden mute produced, and have decided to purchase one of
my own. I have many other mutes, so don't need the wood mute to multi-task. I
would be purchasing it solely to play chamber music with strings and/or
woodwinds. A colleague recommended the Dennis Wick mutes, and they are
reasonably priced. I do not know for certain that they are birch, or if that
even makes a difference. Can anyone help with some recommendations/guidance?
Thank you very much (again) for sharing your expertise!> Jennie> > >
