[Hornlist] Sleigh ride
Hi Groups - last night on PBS they aired a documentary all about Leroy Anderson, and it was very interesting. In light of the recent thread about "Sleigh Ride" and our non-favorite musics, I thought that you might want to check your PBS listings and see if it is going to air sometime in your area.

Re: [Hornlist] Sleigh Ride
I heard that for the first time last year. A trumpet playing friend of mine sent it to me and said that this is the reason trumpet players are not allowed to have "Trumpet Christmas". I laughed until I cried. Thanks for bringing back a wondeful memory.

[Hornlist] Sleigh Ride, and Wet Lips
Sleigh Ride... did it Sat. and Sun. in Carlsbad. Audiences like it. Of course, horn parts are notoriously simplistic, but not a bad orchestration overall. Our principal hornist, being with this group for 16 years, also played the wooden "whip" which takes some skill, as she has to anticipate when to start the swing of the thing. At the end of the performance, she got to stand and take a bow, which she did with full grandeur, tongue-in-cheek, of course! Worst horn parts? Definitely many arrangements for concert band where the horns have no rests and lots of offbeats-- enough arranger-abuse to cause a horn player to become slightly anti-social. Wet lips vs. dry lips? Depends on how much grip you want to get on the music, and for me, than can change minutely from day-to-day. Overall, you need enough wetness to allow dexterity to move between the high notes and the low notes. Doesn't need to be a black-and-white decision, but one of shades of gray... some days are grayer than others. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
