A few years ago I offered to send listers copies of the Georges Fuchs
op.56 duets for horn and clarinet. This is a group of 24 pieces forming 6
duets. They are very 18th century - lots of noodles for both players.
The copies come from the Bibliotheque National de France.
In this electronic age, the paper is now scanned and I am happy to email
to anyone here who wants it. The package consists of an attachment of 17
jpgs totalling about 900K.

[Hornlist] Fuchs clarinet/horn duets - P.S.
Several folks to whom I sent these duets might be missing clarinet page 8 - I think I caught all and re-sent, but maybe not. Let me know. I have been sending as 17 separate jpgs, but now I will send as a single zipped file of these jpgs, unless you say not to. Please don't ask for paper copy by post office mail.

[Hornlist] advice,please
Very hot greetings from Florida! I have a question and need some input. I've played first chair for 8-9 years in a community orchestra. Last year we got a new conductor who instituted a schedule whereby we are to rehearse the day of a concert. Concert is at 3, rehearsal from 1-2pm,though it often runs to 2:30pm. Very rough on the lip even though I try to take it easy and save best efforts for actual concert. To me this is very unprofessional,as I think the time to learn what we need to know is at the four regular weekly rehearsals. Any thoughts? ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Hornlist] advice,please
Sounds like rough scheduling, but if you've got chops of steel (handy to have) then it shouldn't make much difference as a practical matter. A couple of years ago I accidentally got myself signed up for back-to-back Christmas season brass quintet gigs with 2 different quintets that just happened to both have the same horn player -- me. The gig that was supposed to be on Saturday turned out actually to be on Sunday, right ahead of the gig that was already set for Sunday. So it goes. Midway through the 2nd quintet gig, with my face starting to feel the strain, between tunes I said something to my colleagues about the bad scheduling, adding, Fortunately, I have chops of steel. At that, our tuba player (the guy who calls the tunes) said, OK, Mr. Chops Of Steel, how about Le Basque as our next number? I said OK we lit into Le Basque. Later on we added another arrangement of Le Basque to our quintet book, featuring tuba on the solo line, with horn, bone trumpets playing boom-chick. So far, however, the only version we perform is the horn-feature version. BTW, whenever our large-ensemble conductor schedules a rehearsal-type event right before a performance, he's careful to refer to it as a sound check rather than a rehearsal.

Re: [Hornlist] advice,please
I am not sure what the question is? Do other orchestras rehearse the day of the concert and end a half hour before the concert starts, yes, I know several. Do those musicians complain, yes. Is this practice detrimental to the overall performance quality that an orchestra produces i would guess yes, but your organization did it for a year so you are in a better position than I to answer that question. Do you feel like your overall performance suffers then say something to the Maestro, play even less this year on the sound check ask for an assistant specifically because of the added rehearsal. I am assuming something got cut somewhere else maybe this is a money saving thing from management's side? Did you as musicians have a say in hiring this guy, maybe if you did not that should change.

Re: [Hornlist] advice,please
Hi, Anne. This is a lot more common than you might think. It does happen with many community orchestras and sometimes with pro orchestras. I have found myself running out of gas during the concert and it was pretty embarrassing. I learned to dog it in these final rehearsals and save my chops. Yes, play the solo spots in the rehearsals, but really cut back on the tutti stuff and accompaniments. After that, no more problems. IF you have an assistant, turn him/her loose to play out during the rehearsal. cheers, Paul Mansur On Monday, August 15, 2005, at 02:11 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Very hot greetings from Florida!

RE: [Hornlist] advice,please
We have had a similar situation with our orchestra since the current music director took over 9 years ago. Because we are a community orchestra, I can see why he wants to do thislast minute reminders regarding the tougher spots and what should be done. We have made him aware that this is tough on the horns, and he is very good about asking for very little from us during these pre-concert rehearsals.

[Hornlist] soldering
Dear friends, My horn came back from a repairman who has assembled it badly (the whole valve section was too high ) and than reassembled it again(this time the valve section is too low , and it seems like the instrument is stretched) .My question is:if I would take my horn to someone (better , I hope )wouldn't the heat created by the soldering action damage the metal? can an instrument be assembled and than reassembled ? thanks indeed , Alon ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
[Hornlist] lets hear it for directors!
I saw this in an ad on Ebay for a single F horn, it gave me a few chuckles: Please allow me to tell you that I do not know anything about this type of instrument. I asked a Public School Band Director about the horn and he said it appears to be in the key of F or Bb. I guess the public school band director was hedging his bets.

[Hornlist] Cheating
On Aug 14, 2005, at 10:00 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I always have an auxilary main tuning slide for my doubles. It has additional tubing in order to bring the Bb side of the horn down to A. Then, I cross tune the horn, pulling the F side out to bring it down to E. Thus I have an E/A horn. This makes all those E solos much easier (just play the notes without transposition). This is NOT cheating. In fact a long time ago when I play for Herman Baumann in a master class, he was very appreciative of the fact that people do this. Hi folks, There is no such thing as cheating when it comes to fingerings. God I am tired of hearing this. Thank you Eldon.

Then you can be like the photography people I run into on the photo forums who complain about the fact that their expensive cameras don't turn out perfect pictures every time. The prevailing attitude is often: If I've spent this much on a camera it should give me better pictures than it does. Of course none of these people have ever studied anything about photography and don't see why they should have to. Technology isn't everything, thank goodness.
