It was probably in the bottom of a box under a 
work bench in your garage, next to a bottle of
weed killer, if your storage is as effective as mine is.

I'm playing horn for a musical production of Sondheim's Into the Woods.
There is some stopped horn in the music labeled appropriately but also some
lines with the  indication mute. But would this be straight mute? Stopped?

I don't know if mute is just assumed to be straight.

And Lawrence Y replied

I used a straight mute (the only one I've got)

I used a cone-shaped mute, the only one that fits.

I have a Yamaha practice mute that starts conical, but then tapers again
towards the base. This could explain why my playing has all gone
pear-shaped.
