[Hornlist] Holtons
My German teacher and I were conversing and I found out she plays horn. She told me that a friend had given her a horn and she knew it was a Holton. We determined it is a Holton 177. I play on a Holton 179. We looked the specs up online and it does not seem to have any differances. Does anyone know what they might be? Thanks _ Internet Explorer 8 – Get your Hotmail Accelerated.

[Hornlist] Mouthpieces
I just bought a new french horn mpc that I am really fond of. I don't know the exact specs, but it has a flat paxman rim and a b14 moosewood cup. I also play trumpet and was wondering if anyone knew of a trumpet mouthpiece that would be similar to my horn mpc. I know those are really vague specs, sorry.

[Hornlist] Rotor Valves
I have a slight problem with my rotor valves...My second valve has a clicking noise and has had it for a while. I am not too concerned about it so I have just left it alone. However, as of late my first, third, and trigger have been slow and sticky. My third valve makes like a grinding noise when it is pressed.Like I said, I am not really concerned about the second valve, but if anyone has encountered this problem and knows how to fix it that would be great. I do want to fix my other three since it is actually hindering the playing. I know I will probably have to take it into a shop, but I am hesitant because I've had bad luck with them (Yeah, they get the job done but they also add some dents and/or scratches to it!) I was just wondering if anyone knew what might be wrong and/or how to fix it...(and yes, I do oil it regularly...)Thanks in advanceAshleyPSIf it matters I have a Holton Farkas 179... _ Suspicious message?

[Hornlist] Worship Band
I attend a smaller, more conservative church and the youth there are trying to bring some new thing to the services to spice things up. We really want to have a worship band that includes all of our music playing youth. I looked in a couple places, but could not quite find what I was looking for in music. I was wondering if anyone out there might have a solution... We are looking for well known and modern Christian (anyone know Casting Crowns?) rather than hymnesque pieces. And our instrumentation would be a set player, piano, trombone, horn, trumpet, bass guitar, and accoustic guitar. I know this is really specific, but that is probably why I am struggling to find something. Google only goes so far... *sigh* I would really appreciate any help! Thanks! _ The i’m Talkaton.

[Hornlist] Quintet Music
A friend of mine is leading a brass quintet in our school. We are looking for some music and don't really know where to head. I really want to do a jazzy piece. Also, if anyone knows where to get Rakes of Mallow that would be exciting (especially if it comes in quintet form!) If anyone has any recommendations of where to look or of pieces to try I'd really appreciate it. _ Enjoy 5 GB of free, password-protected online storage. http://www.windowslive.com/skydrive/overview.html?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_Refresh_skydrive_062008___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
RE: [Hornlist] An unusual response
I tried taking up trombone for a while as well, however I had to opposite happen. My french horn suffered. This is interesting... Anyone else have the same result or am I just weird..? Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2008 18:38:40 +0100 To: horn@music.memphis.edu From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Hornlist] An unusual response In order to clear the room of flies and better understand its mysteries, I have recently taken up the trombone. A most surprising response, I find that after a short trombone session, my horn playing is significantly improved. My tone is better, my high notes are clearer. This puzzles me. But as I'm only a Beginner, no change to the number of flies. Any comments? (Even from Cabbage!)

RE: [Hornlist] Knopf Horn Website
Actually, if you click the little flag on the left side of the page it will translate into English. -Ashley Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 13:15:31 -0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; horn@music.memphis.edu CC: Subject: [Hornlist] Knopf Horn Website Hi hornisti: I'm a fan of Knopf horns, so here's an alert to let you know that Knopf finally has a website listing their available instruments. http://www.knopf-horn.de/ It's in German. No English yet, apparently. Click Instrumente to see the instruments. It looks like they've added a Bb/F descant horn to their lineup, in addition to Knopf and Kruspe-wrap doubles, one compensating double, and a single Bb with stopping valve.

[Hornlist] Music
I have a french horn friend who gave me a burnt CD of a bunch of horn pieces (solos, duets, choirs, etc.). It was unmarked and he had it forever (along with SEVERAL french horn disks) so he didn't remember for sure where it came from. On it was a recording of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, but played by horns and couple other back-up instruments. I found a video of what appears to be the same arrangement (or maybe group, i don't know) on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSXvqRXaJ0M) I was just wondering if anyone knew where I might be able to find a copy of sheet music for this piece. I know this is really vague, and unlikely to turn anything up, but I wondered if anyone else out there knew what I was talking about and could help me out. I wish I had more information, sorry.

[Hornlist] Wooden Mpc
I am looking for a new mouthpiece to try. I don't really know what kind I want, but am leaning toward a wooden one. I was wondering if there was anyway to look at one before taking the dive and purchasing one then deciding it doesn't work for me... -Ashley _ Give to a good cause with every e-mail.
