[Hornlist] RE: [horn] I Found My Horn
I received my copy on Saturday, so I would imagine that anyone who pre-ordered a copy will receive it soon.

There is a couple of hundred >dollars difference, in the two is the Bonna case that much better a case? I used the Conn case for about a year, but the stitching started falling apart and I got tired of trying to repair it. Other than the lack of a music pocket, it was fine. Then I got the ProTec case,(PB-316SB, pictures at http://www.finecases.com/browse/protec/protec-2178.html) which is very similar to the Conn case, but a bit larger and heavier, but better constructed overall. It has a music pocket that can accomodate a large music folder easily. The bad points: The inside is actually too big for my Lawson. The backpack straps are fastened on with velcro that kept coming loose; Right now, I am using this case with a shoulder strap to avoid the velcro issue. It would be a pretty good case if the backpack straps were usuable. It is about the same price or less than the Conn. I am thinking about trying the Thompson case, $260 (http://thompsonedition.com/browse_accessories.php?id=2) I previously had the Bonna MB1. I like the design of this case, but the zippers did not hold up well, especially considering the price of the case. -- Jonell Lindholm Reisterstown, MD USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
[Hornlist] FWD: (none)
We got dad back to the village. Dr. Wagner's associate came in to discharge him. He didn't want to get discharged. He appeared at death's door but they released him anyway. He wanted to wear the hospital gown and hospital robe out but the aides dressed him---he also wanted an ambulance to take him back to the village but that didn't fly either. He could barely stand while in the hospital. When we got him back to the Village the girls all made a big fuss over him and by the time we left he was walking out of the bathroom on his own with the walker. Roy's daughter Barb called and the "death's door" voice came out again for that conversation. The old guy that was in the next bed to him at the hospital, who also sat at his table at the Village died this morning and dad heard the whole process so I know that was upsetting for him too, but he was enjoying telling his other tablemate John all about it when John came down to visit him right before we left his room. Wagner wrote on his discharge papers "allergic bronchitis" as the diagnosis--the ER dr. had said he had pneumonia. The discharge dr. set him up for visiting home health care for a while to help get his strength back. I'm sure he'll enjoy that. He wanted a tray of food as soon as we got him back to the village and he ate EVERY BIT. That is all. i hope. -- Jonell Lindholm Reisterstown, MD USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

RE: [Hornlist] Re: Conductors, and Ensemble Personalities
>= Original Message From "Fred Baucom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = [snip] >It has been of continuing interest to me, however, that good >amateur orchestras seem to attract good amateur hornists, while a good band >often goes begging. A lot depends on the repertoire, IMHO. Bands play lots of marches, which have endless offbeats. There are also lots pieces with horn parts that are just filler. Victory at Sea comes to mind. It goes on for page after page with nothing interesting for the horns to play. There also are lots of arrangements where the saxes double the horns, and armies of saxes play so loud that there is no way that the horns will ever be heard. That is not very satisfying, especially when the saxes do not play in tune. However, if the band is playing grade 5 - grade 6 literature, there are lots of interesting horn parts. Contrast that to the orchestra, where the horns are more prominent than in a band. Horns in orchestras have lots of good parts to play, and the trumpets and trombones do not have as much to do. Plus, there are very few works that use sax. ;-) Take Beethoven 3, for instance. The horns are having a blast, but the trumpets complain about playing the "high timpani" parts and the low brass don't even have a part. Personally, I would like to play in a band *and* an orchestra, but the most desirable bands and orchestras around here all rehearse on Monday, so that is pretty much impossible. -- Jonell Lindholm Reisterstown, MD USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

This way, you could hold the horn and play with one hand when needed (like when flipping pages). It was a lot easier to keep stable when playing and marching, too. YMMV...

Re: [Hornlist] software
Minidisc.org has a list of devices that record digitally and can easily be transferred to a computer at http://minidisc.org/uploader_table.html. However, these are *not* minidisc devices. Most function as a USB data drive for digital transfers. Depending on the device, Multi Media Card, Compact Flash, IBM microdrive, internal memory, or hard drives is used for data storage. Unfortunately, as noted on the page above, the recording features on these devices can be pretty primitive. Sony has just announced a Hi-MD format where normal minidiscs can be reformatted to record up to 300 MB and new Hi-MD media will record up to 1 GB on new media. Supposedly, these (with special Sony software) will allow high speed uploading of recordings to a PC. It will function as a USB data drive.

Re: [Hornlist] absent players?
It depends... How important is the missing part? How does the conductor feel about the substitute player's ability? In the community orchestras that I have played in, someone (usually the 3rd horn) covers the 1st part if the principal is absent. If one of the other parts is missing, it may or may not be covered by someone else. That depends on how important the part is and what major holes will appear if the part is not played. If I play a different part at a rehearsal, I look at it as an opportunity to better myself and to better understand how the parts fit together. It is best to be prepared for anything.

If physically moving people is the solution to rotation of >parts, then concerts start to look like some sort insane version of >Cirque du Soleil That may depend on whether you are talking about band or orchestra. Band concerts tend to have a lot of shorter works, and yes, it could look like a circus if everyone changes parts every piece. If you are talking about orchestra concerts, it doesn't matter so much. Most orchestra concerts have only 3-5 longer pieces , so there won't be a lot of shuffling in this instance. Besides, the instrumentation usually changes for every piece, so people will be coming and going between pieces anyway. For instance, some pieces will have no flutes, some no low brass, some will have 2 horns instead of 4, some will have 3 oboes instead of 2, etc so there is already a guaranteed parade on and off stage. ;-) [snip] -- Jonell Lindholm Reisterstown, MD USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] set your options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

Re: [Hornlist] Anna Russell
Her first husband was a hornist. He joined the British army during WWII, then divorced her when he came back from the war. I just got a copy of her autobiography titled very appropriately "I'm not making this up, you know". She says that horn players have no sense of humor. On time, she tried to do a gag with the Ring, which involved the first horn player screwing up the last part of the long call. She explained what she wanted him to do, but he was furious and said it would ruin his reputation. She says that since he wasn't the most accurate player on earth, she thought the odds were that he would screw it up anyway. Unfortunately for Anna, for the first time in his life he played the call flawlessly and completely ruined the gag. -- Jonell Lindholm Reisterstown MD USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Herbert Foster" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "The Horn List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 1:31 PM Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Anna Russell > She was an opera singer, and I believe her husband was a hornist, so she knew > what she was singing(?) about. > > Herb Foster > --- phirsch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ... > > I have in my possession a DVD entitled "Anna Russell : the (first) farewell > > concert" (VAI DVD 4208).
