Ralph,
I know you said not using the symbols from word. s this because of the
interupting procedure to insert the symbol into a document? If it is, you
can avoid the whole thing by creating "short cuts" so you only have to press
a combination of two or more keys anytime you want to insert the symb
Why dont you ask me about informations about my horns & my view about

And I have told the list, that all info regarding my horns or music can

Before you use such a word as "Fascist", you better keep your mouth

Plus regarding Quasthoff: he absolutely cannot act on stage due to his
physical handicaps. He would be a great Johanaan or Wolfram, indeed, but
it is impossible. He could borrow his voice to an actor, who could
replace him

Of course I know Rudy is BASED on a true story. Real life doesn't make for
good cinema. Whether you liked Moulin Rouge is beside the point. The
script called for a young writer who falls in love with a beautiful
courtesan. I agree that Ms. Midler is a beautiful woman, but Ewan McGregor

Rudy is a true story thank you very much! Given it took place in a simpler
time but it was the truth! I was only pointing out the David vs. Galiath point
of the story. Moulin rouge was the most horrible piece of crap I've ever

C'mon now. Opera has a visual element which is extremely important, even
crucial to the presentation. Using your logic, I suppose you'd like to see
Danny DeVito replace Stallone in "Rambo". After all, DeVito is much better

I agree, but to discourage a beginning player with a serious problem was very
harsh of Hans especially without having firsthand knowledge of the player in
question. Has everyone of us never had a major problem with our playing that
needed fixed? If our teachers and mentors discouraged us inste
Hans is correct, talking about the 'extremes' does not usually help the
vast majority who are somewhere in the middle.
Hans' views are realistic, and not discrimination - I am sure he would
acknowledge great playing by any person - even if the player was an 'extreme'.

Does it matter if it is extreme? Sounds like you're running out of Fascist
support.

VERY true. I often think of it in this manner. You have two groups of

Hi Ian,
My first horn ever was a Holton 179 in high school.

minor dints and dings. If you want professional, go with

Hi, Listers. I'm trying to get a hold of a Michael Harcrow (I think that's how you

I studied with him then and am back in Korea courtesy of Uncle Sam. Would like to
