[Hornlist] Re: Cleaning the horn
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Dear Hornlisters, Whatever you use to clean your horn, do not use Lysol Disinfecting Cleaner. One of my section mates was having recurring sinus and throat infections, and figured it was coming from some bug harbored in his horn, so he soaked the horn in the Lysol (we're talking about the stuff in the brown bottle), and scrubbed well. Unfortunately, he didn't rinse well. At the next rehearsal, the more he played, the stronger the smell, and since I sit next to the guy, bell-side, I caught the odor first. Within 10 minutes of rehearsal, the smell permeated the bandroom, at which point, our Director lowered his baton and asked about the strange aroma. Needless to say, Joe now sends his horn out for cleaning. Deborah Buchanan -- ___ Horn mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/listinfo/horn
RE: [Hornlist] Conn Schmidt Model Leadpipe
Making a replacement bit for your horn would not be a problem. It would be less expensive than replacing the entire pipe and would probably affect the playing qualities of the instrument less.

I hope this finds you safe and warm and enjoying the holidays. I have a situation and I need advice. Recently, I had my Conn Schmidt Model horn shipped to a shop and it showed up with a part missing. The horn has a leadpipe that the first 6 or so of the mouthpiece receiver was removeable. I usually had it stuck in a little nylon padded pouch in the case. Somehow, the horn arrived at the shop in fine shape but the mouthpipe was missing. The shop has been searched with no luck. I went to the shipping place today and they said it is not there. Is there some way to get a replacement made If the original can't be recovered ? If I have to get a one-piece leadpipe, where can I get one for a Conn Schmidt Model? Thanx in advance for any and all advice. Merry Christmas to all of you!

[Hornlist] A VISIT FROM ST. DENNIS
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] A VISIT FROM ST. DENNIS By Prof. I. M. Gestopftmitscheist Twas the night before Kopprasch, when all through the house Not a hornist was playing, not even some Strauss; The 8D's were packed in their cases with care, In hopes that St. Dennis soon would be there. The students were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of symphony jobs danced in their heads; As Mamma and I filled out financial aid forms, We wished that those kids had never been born! With auditions looming for college and schools, These two musicians were acting like fools. Playing only solos, excerpts, and such, Their playing was not to be considered, much. Add to these facts that these kids had big heads, Mamma and I were in the throes of great dread. Since money was tight and the wallet quite thin, Unless they got scholarships, the future was grim. When out on the lawn there arose such a sound, I sprang from the desk like a deer on a bound! Away to the window, I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash! The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Gave the lustre of midday to objects below, When what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a gigantic sleigh and eight great-big reindeer! A distinguished man had his hand on the rein, I new in a moment that it surely was St. Brain. More rapid than Al Cass his coursers they came, And he free buzzed, and shouted, and called them by name: Now, Alex! now Kruspe! now Conn and Holton! On, Yamaha! on Geyer! on, Schmid and Lawson! To the top of the range! to the pedal notes fall! Now play away! play away! play away all! As great horn players can do on the fly, When they meet with an excerpt, mount to the sky, So up to the roof-top the coursers they flew, With a sleigh full of music, and St. Dennis too. And then, in an eighth note, I heard on the roof The puffing and blowing of each little toot. As I drew in my head, and was fumbling around, Down the chimney came St. Dennis, ready to sound. He was dressed in his tails, and patent leather shoes, And he then said to me, In a minute, great news! A bundle of music he had flung on his back, And in his right hand, a Marcus Bona pack. I stared at his face, and his eyes were afire, and I knew in his life, there was only one desire, to take out a horn and play it so well, that the rest of us mortals could just go to hell! He opened the gig bag and picked up his horn, like I knew he had done since the day he was born. He then played the Siegfried with nary a clam, and all I could think of was hot damn! And this great performance had awakened the kids, Who came in a'running, and put on the skids. They were all shaken, scared, and bewildered of that Since the only horn playing they had done had sounded like crap. He then played Till Eulenspiegel with nary a crack, And all with perfect rhythm, dynamics and attack. His beautiful tone was simply amazing, Not to mention his incredible phrasing. The kids starting yelling, HOW CAN WE DO THAT? WE'LL NEVER SUCCEED IF WE STILL SOUND LIKE CRAP! And then St. Dennis said, Please, don't despair. There is remedy for all problems, so there. My instructions, now, you should perfectly heed, If you really ever, ever want to succeed. St. Dennis then reached down into his sack, And pulled out some music and handed it back. There are five fundamentals to playing horn well, Without support for you air, your playing will smell. A strong embouchure gives you right notes and range, Good articulation keeps things from sounding strange. One must know their intervals and play pitches in tune, Or else you will clam and play like a bufoon! You need perfect rhythm, without any glitches, Otherwise, you'll have the audience in stitches. Put it all together and what have you got? Why, great playing, for sure, and crap it is not! If you work on the basics one hour per day, Then people will listen, they might even pay! So practice these studies, numbers one through sixty. Until you have assuredness and consistency. This time you invest is always well spent, Especially when you must perform at any event. Your excerpts and solos will go like the wind, Since you know all the techniques to employ within. A tricky passage is now in your grasp, Since you have practiced and practiced: KOPPRASCH!!! With a wink of his eye and a nod of his head, I've got others to tell, tonight, he said. And then with his horn and his music in hand, Up the chimney he went, fast as fast can. He sprang to his sleigh and buzzed to his team, Away they all flew, as if in a dream. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight, Happy KOPPRASCH to all and to all a good night!

Re: [Hornlist] Conn Schmidt Model Leadpipe
Dear Mr. Westlund, We can supply you with a replacement mouthpipe for your Conn Schmidt Model Horn. It can be either a one piece mouthpipe or two piece as you had. If you could send us the part that is attached to your horn, we can either make up a 6 set piece to replace the one lost, a two piece pipe or a single pipe. We would need to have a drawing of the curve of the original pipe to give the proper length and fit of the replacement. Perhaps it would be easier for us to explain if you call us. That is, if you are interested. Sincerely, Walter A. Lawson Lawson Brass Instruments, Inc. P.O.
