[Hornlist] Scratchy Old 78-RPM Records
Dear Friends, Even though I have collected about 30 feet of old LPs boxfuls of 45-rpm singles, plus bushels of stereo cassettes, I draw the line at 8-track cartridges scratchy old 78s. But check out the story linked below about a guy who's into 78s. http://www.opinionjournal.com/la/?id=110006171 The author says some of those old stax of wax give valuable insights into early 20th-century performance practice (vocal style, string wind articulation, flexible tempo phrasing from the time when Brahms, Dvorak, Verdi, Puccini were at work). -- Alan Cole, rank amateur McLean (Fairfax County), Virginia, USA. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

RE: [Hornlist] Looking for Giardinelli C series Gold Rim
Gold plating is done in a galvanic process using 24-carat gold (pure gold). The usual thicness is 5 micron to 15 micron. A micron is 1/1000 of a mm. You dont need to bring the mouthpiece to a jeweller, as he will not do the gold plating himself. There are galvanic companies providing plating service from chromium to gold, as said before. There are even (more rare) companies specialized into silver gold plating. Before gold plating the piece has to be polished, ultra sonic degreased and silver plated first. If it has not to be done in a rush, things go cheaper as to be plated together with otzer customers things. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Freides Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2005 3:54 PM To: 'The Horn List' Subject: RE: [Hornlist] Looking for Giardinelli C series Gold Rim For a jeweler whose never done this, are any particular instructions necessary other than gold plating?

[Hornlist] RE: MD (late)
A year ago I decided I too wanted to record live performances of various sorts with high quality. I searched and could not find anything other than mini-disc that has a built-in mic preamp. There are plenty of memory- and HD-based units that have line-ins, but none I found with mic-in. For a year I've regularly recorded with a Sony MZ-N10 and a binaural condenser mic setup. The results have been outstanding. Yes, I have to upload to the PC stereo in (at 48khz)via analog and only realtime. Then edit, convert to 44.1khz and burn a CD. The nearly $400 Sony MZ-NH1 is advertised as permitting digital uploading of mic recordings. I haven't seen anyone post who is actually using a Nomad or whatever to do live concert recordings, though many have given opinions not backed by experience. (maybe I missed a post?)

[Hornlist] Looking for Giardinelli C series Gold Rim
As Hans Pizka mentioned, the gold plating can be done in various thicknesses. A mpc rim should have a thick plating because it is in constant 'rubbing' contact with your lips - a thin gold 'flash plating' would wear off very quickly. Thin plating is fine for objects that don't get handled much, but a tool such as a mpc rim needs a thick plating inorder for the plating to last. You should discuss this with the person doing (or taking the order) for your plating - if the person is not familiar with different plating thicknesses, you should probably talk with someone else Jay Kosta Endwell NY amateur player ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

RE: [Hornlist] Lessons being taught on the Memphis list.
I can see why you might find this annoying. You can certainly make the argument that since the professional makes his/her living teaching and performing, then seeking out free advice borders on bad ethics and even stealing in the sense you are depriving the professional of his/her source of income. It seems, at least in the US, there is a great effort to gain all you can for free or as close to free as possible. On the other hand, many professionals and other in the know do willingly offer the advice of their own free choice. Also, I would like to offer a defense of those who seek this advice. Even if you have a horn teacher or professor who is your primary interface for studying the horn, it is often quite useful to get a second opinion on a solution for your problem or quest for a better way because someone else may have a new idea or a different explanation that is just the answer you need to get you over your hurdle. That is what happened to me at A.I.R. Horns last weekend. I've had a problem in the low register which I have never been able to solve in a satisfying way despite years of horn lessons. When I demonstrated the problem to Charles Putnam of the American Horn Quartet, he offered a simple solution that fixed the problem completely. Why no one else, including myself, hadn't thought of it before, I can't explain, but there you go.

[Hornlist] Sweet movie sounds - partly NHR
Just saw A very long engagement - French film (Un long dimanche de fiancailles) with English subtitles. The HR part of this message is to say that there is some very sweet horn playing throughout the film. The background music is mostly simple, slow and lyrical, and (of course?) the horn is chosen as an important emotive generator. There is probably little in the horn part other than easy phrases of liquid half-notes. The hornist is not named in the credits - no one in the orchestra other than the 1st violinist is named. Of semi-HR interest is that the protagoniste, Audrey Tautou (star of Amelie), heartsick for her lover whom she believes to be lost in the great war, plays the tuba for comfort. As the story progresses - as her hopes raise - her repertoire increases from only one note to several, mimicking a little the horn part. The credits list the name of the tuba professor (Philip Porte), who presumably taught her what she knows how to do on that great instrument. Of NHR interest is the surprising appearance of Jodie Foster in a bit role, speaking fast fluent French. There are some humorous moments amidst graphic WWI violence depicting the madness of war. Wonderful, moving flick! { David Goldberg: [EMAIL PROTECTED] } { Math Dept, Washtenaw Community College } { Ann Arbor Michigan } ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Hornlist] Lessons being taught on the Memphis list.
Matt, Point well made, but then what about the individual who is playing the horn where there is no teacher of the horn available ? Back in the 1960's when I was growing up I lived in a small town in Arizona and the closest horn teacher was 185 miles away in Phoenix and the next closest was 300 miles away in Tucson. There was the Farkas book on the art of horn playing and some helpful teachers who had studied horn in brass methods class in college and that was it. Oh to have had the internet back then and this and the other list. Perhaps the situation has changed today and horn teachers proliferate everywhere, but I don't think that is the case. Again as someone else suggested, we have delete buttons to seperate the wheat from the chaff.

Hi, Then what exactly is this mailing list for?

It is fine to assume that you are teaching yourself, but it is quite annoying, from my perspective, to see question after question after question that normally one would ask a horn professor.

[Hornlist] wisdom
This isn't from a hornist - it is today's quotation from A.W.A.D. Scary. I suppose it could apply to horn playing.

RE: [Hornlist] Intonation in different registers
Major third. That´s why playing together with a keyboard instrument is rather difficult for a wind instrument player.

Not for a permanent teaching from scratch. But to answer individual questions to solve problems. Yes, to exchange views informations. Yes, to entertain each other. Yes, to have fun. Yes, to do some brain gymnastics. No, to be a substitute for paid lessons. === -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of G Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2005 4:10 AM To: The Horn List Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Lessons being taught on the Memphis list.
