Or, if you want to do it on the cheap, go to Staples and spend about a buck on multi-colored foam pencil grips. They fit nicely over the spatulas and you'll even have one left over to use as a spare.

Re: [Hornlist] Horn and Trumpet - if you put away one...
This is from my own experience, but when I started playing trumpet in high school marching band, I still played french horn, but not as much as I should have. I lost A LOT of my low range and struggled for quite some time to get it back. So I think putting the horn down for a long time would be a mistake. However, I do not know what putting the trumpet down would do for the trumpet chops... maybe he would improve more quickly if he concentrates on one embouchure vs. two, though? Which one does your son like better? If he enjoys them both, maybe the best option is to give up something else besides his music.

Re: [Hornlist] Hornists in the Czech Republic?
It has just been too long since I was there during the 300th anniversary of the horn in Bohemia. I have no contacts left, now. But find a few hornspielers and they'll take time to lift a few with you.

RE: [Hornlist] Hornists in the Czech Republic?
Hello Carlberg, I doubt if any professional horn player in Brno or Prague has time to play duets or quartets with visiting horn players from abroad, as they struggle to survive in a society which is just business orientated & has nothing left financially for the arts. Most of them play in various orchestras & ensembles to compensate the exorbitant rising living costs. Goverment provides just funds for Prague Philharmonic (their National Philharmonic), National Theatre (Opera) & National Museum incl. National Library. Other institutions receive no financial support by tax money. By the way, the cathedral in Prague is named St.Vitus & not St.Vitas. There is a wood carved altar of enormous cultural importance. You have a fantastic view over Prague from the Hradschin (the castle high above Moldavia river). Have fun in Prague & Brno. Be aware that the Pilsen Urquell is a strong beer.

Re: [Hornlist] Hornists in the Czech Republic?
Carlberg, You may want also to contact M. Jiracek & Sons, horn makers in the Czech Republic. Vlastimil Jiracek speaks English fairly well and is most accomodating. They may be able to put you in touch with people. NHR: Enjoy your time there! I visited in '93, and Praha (Prague) is still my favorite city in the world. You must see the Castle and St. Vitas Cathedral (1000 years in the making!), walk the Golden Lane, Karluv Most (Charles Bridge), Tyn church, Old Town Square with the Astronomical Clock, Josefov and the old Jewish cemetery, etc. etc.. A wondrous place. I've heard it's become unbelievably expensive. Too bad for that, but it's still worth it.
