Marceau de Concert (I think I butchered the spelling) by Camille Saint-Saens
is a very easy band arrangement and a good horn solo piece. Hope this helps.

Assuming that the vision problem can be corrected by glasses, bifocals are not
necessary, and you can save the cost. If the corrected vision focuses on the

follow perfectly. Who wants to see the conductor in perfect focus an

If by "those people who test eyes for Lens Crafters in the mall" you mean
optometrists, you are mistaken. While not a medical doctor, an optometrist
is trained as a specialist in diagnosing vision defects and disease; he/she
can and will perform all the tests you mentioned. An opthalmologist (who

Go to an optometrist and bring some music with you, maybe even a stand! Let

Hmm I've wondered about the Reverie for a while. I have only the Cerminaro
recording of it and I beleive he plays stopped through the end. When I just
played it for my recital two weeks ago, I went open for the last note. Both of
my most recent teachers taught me to play the last note open.

Hi Neil,
I think it would be helpful to know why your eyes
are bad. Two years ago, thanks to some input
on the subject on this hornlist, I had a lens implant
that cleared up a cataract problem in my right eye.
That helped my sightreading (more practice helped
also). With better vision I was able
Having just lost half of the sight in my left eye,
due to a minor stroke, I'm very sensitive to vision
issues.
First of all, I would get my eyes tested by a true
medical doctor, not just one of those people who
test eyes for Lens Crafters in the mall. Be sure
to have a field vision test done, a

As I have to notice from your letter, you play without left hand. Does it mean, you

Yes, off course, the Wagner Tuba can be louder than any horn. But is that a quality
factor ? Well, I do not vote against any brand, so not to get
