Re: [Hornlist] Re: Clean teeth, clean valves

So the correct way to determine how to pronounce Kruspe would be to visit
Erfurt and survey people.  It is too far north to be pronounced "Grusbaä,"
though.

Sorry, Paul, I sent the correction to Steve. You should throw your
German book away. Kruspe should be pronounced as "crew´s- peh" - There
is no Umlaut involved.

Ooops, in Saxony (former East Germany) they do something like that in
dialect: Tinte - Tünte - Tunte, Fluegel - Fliegel, "gann isch mal rum
krieschen" or "gaen´se fleisch ribagommn ?".

Steven announces, "Kruspe does not have an umlaut."

That is for sure as the Kruspe boys, Karl, his sons Eduard and Friedrich,
and his grandsons, Fritz and Walter, have been passed on for many years now.

BTW, The Kruspe name can be traced as far back as 1530 AD and it was Fritz
and Walter that invented the first workable double horn in 1897. The ED
Kruspe company was begun in 1834 and is now managed by Peter Heldmann. The
last family member to manage the business was Professor George Wendel. The
first non-family member manager was Rudi Schneider who was trained by Fritz.
Peter is the firs manager with no connections to the Kruspe family, but he
has earned the title of master craftsman which in Germany is no small feat.

Crew´s-peh or Grew-speh would sound like we pronounce "Krus-pe". There
is never any "ue" (Umlaut) in Kruspe. Steve, throw your book away.

Anyway, they do not play Kruspe here any more, but a few for fun, just

That is quite true, and I didn't intend to imply that I condoned practicing
that much for other instruments.

Personally, I think that if you really require that much practice time to
improve, you're in the wrong business.  

See The Art of Horn Playing for Pontifex Farkas' thoughts on practicing.  3
hours daily.

Brushing the teeth before playing can maintain a better hygiene inside the
horn. Not he food residue will not accumulate in the inside of the horn, but
our body may also be more healthy. (The food residue in the horn may contain
bacteria)

If a layer of food residue dirts are formed inside the horn, the horn sound
may not good.

Senseless practice of five hours is useless, while two to three hours
practising with sense is absolutely enough. But practise the things you
should do better, not things you can do very well already. Practise any
piece of music  MUSICALLY, even long tones & scales or interval
exercises. Make yourself independent from extensive warm ups. Live the
music !!!

Do not forget to get a musical background (history, social, composer
biographies, opera stories, etc.) - can be acquired during the rests
between the practise sessions.

Hey, everyone, I'd say I agree with Hans.


I have another question for all of you professional players and
graduate
students. Howw many hours of actual time with the horn at your face in
the practice room not rehearsals is ideal for a college freshman music
major with professional playing aspriations? I can only get about four
to
five hours, the hours I' not at work or in class. Will this be
sufficient? I hear about those who get six hours plus of individual
practice time, and I don't see how it is possible for the full time
student without expiriencing sleep deficiencies.
