I just played a band arrangement of Pines of Rome last weekend with said mute. The really low part (to Ab) in the "Pines by the Catacombs" movement projected well and was very stable and in tune.

RE: [Hornlist] Kowalchuk Mutes
Hi Carlberg, Do you have any general guidelines for how to adjust a mute? What happens to the pitch/tone if I sand down the corks? I'm afraid to shave the corks too far. -- Bruce Kelley in Redmond, WA -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carlberg Jones Greetings - While I have not tried Kowalchuk's mutes on the passage in Villanelle, I've used four or five of them for normal orchestra playing and they have played freely throught the range of the horn. The low range is especially easy to project. As with other mutes, fine tuning of the sound and pitch can be done by filing or sanding the corks as well as with the internal tuning mechanism.

[Hornlist] Kowalchuk Mutes
Continuing my previous mute question, I have found the Kowalchuk mutes to be some of the best on the market and I am wondering if they hold up well in the low register. the specific passage I am concerned about is the muted part in 'Villanelle' by Paul Dukas, which goes to a low Eb while muted, so I would like to know the quality of the note as well as the quality of the low range in general.

Re: [Hornlist] Yamaha 668N
I've played one on a couple occassions and was very impressed. While I think the 668V, the hand-made custom model is really a superior instrument, the 668N was still a good instrument. It's a huge improvement over the first 668.

[Hornlist] influence of principal hornists
Hi listers - after a discussion with a hornist in my local orchestra [Binghamton, NY] I became curious as to the extent of principal hornists influencing or demanding that their sections play a particular horn. His statement was that the principal horn of another regional symphony was the student of a prominent NYC principal player [not Phil Myers] and because of that teacher's influence or dictation, this student has made or caused her section to change to a certain well known horn. Does this really still occur, and is it more of an ulterior sort of pressure or is it overt? After all the discussions that have occurred on this list, I personally would find it hard to maintain my colleagiallity if my model of horn were the most important consideration in my [at present hypothetical] continued employment. I am aware that there are political and diplomatic issues in this type of situation, but my basic question is just is this type of situation really still as prevalent as so me seem to think?
