[Hornlist] Terminology Help?

Jenny, I think your skepticism was well-placed - with an island feel would hardly be applicable to a Korean folk song, unless the variations were totally off-the-wall - and I seem to recall John Barnes Chance's band music was generally a bit more serious than that. Great piece, by the way!

Wilbert, I think that you and Russ have an excellent idea. I suppose that one reason that the IHS doesn't want to get involved is simply the fact that advertising is essential to keep the Horn Call afloat, so to speak. What if Brand X horn (the one that, say, does a full page ad on the back of

Okay, if IHS can't do it then maybe Consumer Reports can step in and save the horn community from undocumented reliability and manufacturing QC. Like the April issue is for cars, maybe they can set aside a month for an Annual Horn issue. I'd volunteer to be a test driver! I can just imagine the
