One of the three is a hybrid with 6D valves
One is #90 which would be one of his earliest horns.
One is a model R4 which, if it is a Model 4, is a full Bb/F

It might be worthwhile to check out #90.

I have played a Patterson 8D conversion that had been fitted with a 9D bell.
I found it to be a better suited horn for my preference and taste. More
compact in sound and response, without loss of the 8D character. It's worth
looking into, if you're so inclined.

A question I have put out to some very smart people and have never
gotten an answer. If you started 2 identical bells, 2 identical
leadpipes,
a mass of pipe of the same bore, and built a Geyer wrap and a Kruspe
wrap
what would be the difference in playing characteristics between them?

memoir a couple of years ago entitled, "Evolution of a Symphony

Hello all,
I read the article that Mr. David Goldberg suggeted, and one of the
things it said about recruiting horns (for succesful players or playing) was
looking at the physical factors of the players. I will paste what it said:

Perhaps in certain cases it would be better to cryogenically treat the
player, not the horn?
