Now, I am having the mostest of confusings as to this fight about strings vs.
balls because I have played many musics in many venues and I have never heard
a string section with balls, in my mostest humblestest of opinions, and this
is also true about horn and valve linkagistics and the physicals of valvology,
but, this is now having the makings of the mootest of points, since, whether
you have strings and no balls, or balls (not just mini but sub-compact or
compact, or mid-sized, or full-sized, or super-sized, or gigantissimo-SUV-sized,
or Greyhound-bus-sized, or M-1-Abrams-tank-sized, or 747-sized) and no strings,
or any of those antique clockwork mechanicals (like the ones on my Carl
Fischer Special Right-Handed-E-Flat-Wagner-Tube), neither your strings nor your
balls will help you play KOPPRASCH NO. 1 with a good sound, the right rhythm, the
right notes, the correct dynamics, and with a musical outcome that is
pleasing to both your teacher, your audience and your mother, so let's all get back
to what's mostest of importants, anyways, OK, because it's nice to have balls
and it's nice to have strings but it's nicer to have a good lip and a good ear!
