[Hornlist] Stolen Horn in Florida

2008-04-30 Thread CBlice
Hello Everyone,
 
Last night my colleague in the Orlando Philharmonic, Kevin Brooks, was  the 
victim of a thief and his horn and laptop were stolen from his  truck.  The 
occured in Monteverde, Lake County, about 30 miles west of  Orlando.
 
The horn is a Conn8DRS in an Osmun detachable bell case, the kind in which  
the cone for the bell zippers on to the rest of the case.  The bell has had  
the laquer removed and looks very raw.  There is a black Giardinelli  
handguard. 
 There are  3 mouthpieces in the case, a Lawson 660,  Stork M3 and Stork M5.
Serial # is unknown.
 
Please forward this message to any horn players in Florida that you  know.
 
Kevin's cell phone number is 407-468-0772
 
Thanks,
 
Carolyn Blice

Hi Folks,
 
My one and only visit to Rexburg was to see a carousel.  It was an  antique

brother (a carousel nut) was able to help them get it running, so we did  get 
to 
ride on it.

Hi Everybody, 
 
 In answer to Loren's question about Ward Fearn, he played 2nd horn in  the 
Philadelphia Orchestra for about 25 years from 1941-1966.  He joined  the 
Phila. Orch. while they were on tour in Orlando, FL, and at that time was  the 
youngest member of the orch.  He graduated from the U of MI, then  Curtis 
Institute, where he studied with Anton Horner.
>From '66 to '68 he performed with the Chamber Symphony of Phila., then  moved 
to Tampa, FL to teach at the U of So. FL.  He returned to Orlando in  1976 
and played 2nd horn with the Florida Symphony Orchestra until his death in  
1985.  During his time in Phila, he was one of the most sought-after  teachers, 
and students came from far and wide to study with him.

Hi Everybody,

In all the discussion about the devices used to help hold the horn, nobody 
has mentioned the Ergohorn support system.  I saw Kerry Turner use this device 
in Spain this summer and I ordered one after I got back.  I am old enough to 
have some arthritis, I play professionally, and this has proved to be worth its 
weight in gold for me.
This item is not cheap, but I no longer have the pain in my left hand and

[Hornlist] Vote for AHQ on NPR!

2004-02-06 Thread CBlice
Hello All,

I received this email from Charlie Putnam of the American Horn Quartet.  
Let's rally and get the AHQ lots of votes!


I need your help.actually your vote.  I sent one of our horn quartet CDs 
into NPR radio so that they would hopefully use it as an interlude during 
their news shows.  Instead, they have posted it on one of their sites call "open 
mic" where they feature songs from unknown pop and jazz groups that people can 
vote on.  I don't think they have ever put a classical album much less brass 
music or Horns on this site before so we are not exactly in the right venue.  
In any case, we need some high votes. If you can copy and paste this link onto 
your browser, it will take you right to the link..


http://www.npr.org/programs/asc/openmic/index.php?episode=current


otherwise log onto NPR.orgthen on the top section that shows NPR 
programming, you will find (under music) "all songs considered" , once on that 
page click on "open mic" and there we are...and we need your vote.  Voting stops 
on Tuesday.

Thanks,

Charlie

Hello All,

This is in response to Russ Smiley's request for information about starting a 
Horn Club.  Ours is not exactly a club, but it it sponsored by one of our 
local colleges.  It is open to any one who is a capable player.  The college 
music dept. has paid for much of the music that we use and individual members 
have also purchased some works they wish for us to play.  The parent of one 
of the students in the ensemble made a generous donation for the purchase of 
music.
 We rehearse in the college chapel nearly every Monday for 2 hours and will 
present a concert there on April 4th at 7:30 pm  (Anyone still in the Central 
Florida area for spring break is invited!)  
We also perform at the annual Winter Park Bach Festival.  
We recently set up a website - http://members.aol.com/HornsRFun
Hope this helps a little.  Email me if you have questions about our setup
