Hello Trey and Horn List members, Engelbert Schmid has written an informative article on the effect of different bells and alloys that you can read on our web page http://www.osmun.com/prod/Schmid/Schmidbell.htm In this article you will find some insightful information that explains the differences between the different alloys used in horn bells as well as the two distinctive methods of forming bells and the effect these have on the sound.

Re: [Hornlist] horn material
I don't think there is a signifigant difference in the metal of the bell, mostly because I've only played on two different horns so far, the current being an 8D. The 8D sounds a lot better to me than the last horn I had, but that could be due to the design in the horns and what I've done with my horn teacher, since I went through an embouchere change around the time I switched to the 8D. So I honestly can't really say much. Trey Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I'm fairly new to this list, so please forgive me if this is a recycled topic.

RE: [Hornlist] horn material
I would be interested in hearing the replies as well, and hope those who make them will make them to the list. Certain topics are bound to come up over and over and that's OK. -S- > -Original Message- > From: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > du] On Behalf Of Trey Johnson > Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 11:38 AM > To: horn@music.memphis.edu > Subject: [Hornlist] horn material > > I'm fairly new to this list, so please forgive me if this is > a recycled topic.
