Re: [Hornlist] Horn Parts
Tim--if you like the horn, take it to a competent repair person, have them cut a small part off the lower leg of that slide (put the cut off part back in the slide tube), and there you go. If the repair person is not familiar with this, find another one! They should be able to fix you up with a matching slide also.

[Hornlist] [Brass] New Publication from Cherry Classics Music (fwd)
Thought you all would like to see this... Dave -- Forwarded message -- Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2004 07:53:59 -0800 From: Gordon Cherry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Brass] New Publication from Cherry Classics Music Cherry Classics Music announces a new publication of interest to all brass musicians: A STUDY IN MUSICAL INTONATION by CHRISTOPHER LEUBA This book was written in 1962 and is in its 4th revision. This latest edition (11th printing) is printed and published with permission of the author by Cherry Classics Music. Mr. Leuba's book offers the student, amateur and professional a detailed study of the "Science" of Intonation. The standard method of teaching intonation by the intuitive method is discussed and shown to be flawed. This book first addresses the physical and acoustic phenomena relating to the problems of Intonation and Tuning and then makes suggestions concerning the use of "mechanical aids" in training the musician's perception, and some practical applications. You may view or download a free pdf sample of this book by clicking on the following link: http://www.cherry-classics.com/samples/BrassSheet/Leuba_Intonation_Book-sample.pdf A native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Mr. Leuba is a noted music performer, pedagogue and author. Having started playing the horn during his senior year in high school, Mr. Leuba went on to study with noted hornists Aubrey Brain and Philip Farkas. Mr. Leuba served two terms in the United States Army and later performed with the Minneapolis Symphony, eventually rising to principal horn. He served as principal horn with the Chicago Symphony under Fritz Reiner during the 1960-1962 seasons. He has also appeared with the Philharmonica Hungarica under the direction of Antal Dorati. During his extensive career, he has performed fourteen complete Wagner Ring cycles and appeared with Sarah Vaughan, Quincy Jones and the Bill Russo big band. Mr. Leuba taught at the University of Washington for eleven years, during which time he published several books on music performance. Mr. Leuba's A Study of Musical Intonation is highly regarded as a seminal work for teaching the principles of just intonation to musicians. His other publications include Rules of the Game, Phrasing Concepts and Dexterity Drills and are used by brass teachers around the country. He has been an invited clinician at the Annual Conference of The International Trombone Association at Belmont College. Mr. Leuba is presently in his 20th season as Principal Hornist with the Portland Opera in Portland, Oregon. This 40 page book bound with spiral binding may be ordered through Cherry Classics Music.
