Prof. Pizka,
After listening to the samples on your website, I realized that the SOUND I'm after is closer to what I believe you've called the Romantic ideal. You can imagine my surprise!

Hello all,
I have great news! Ive got 1 nutcraker down and 49 to go (and it was
only for a concert, not all of the ballet accompaniment, so you could say 1/2 a
nutcracker and 49 and a 1/2 to go.)! Whooohoo! Yay for me!..Ok I'll

I admit, that the F-horn or the F-side were not the best tools for jazz or
contemporanean music (is it music ? - In most cases it might be nothing else than
black dots on white paper, just to make noise more or less, implementing the extremes
of the instruments & avoiding the

Fuzzy attacks are often caused by not hitting the note exactly on pitch.
For me, that means microscopically undershooting it, and that would be
from inadequate air support at the instant the air begins. The lower the
note, the easier it is to be off a bit. The problem could be the choice

Next time visiting Haagstone I will try their horn with my crook & let
you know the result. BTW: Haagstone makes my Wiener Horns also, but
differently than theirs, and they produce another horn for Tomboeck

About your Wiener Horn, Simon, I might recommend to change the F-crook.

My deepest sympathy or condolences for 47 Nutcrackers plus two to go. We
are in the same boat, but a bit different as I have just one Nutcracker
to come Jan.2nd but 3 behind me before Christmas. It ruins the
embouchure & forces the first horn (positively) to leave out all the

Unless your local opera company completely cheaps out and uses a bad
reduction with only 2 horns, 1 trombone, no tuba. Ack! Shame on the

Opera! Luckily I didn't do it this year but I've played first on the
reduction
before. Somewhat painful in a couple of ways.
Happy New
Regarding mouthpiece bore, I have found out during my 30+ years of
travelling & teaching, that most students (players as well) use too
small bore mouthpieces of between 3,5 to 4,2 mms instead of 4,7 - 5,0
mms. And they wonder about the clumsiness or the "strangulated" sound.

similar to the Englis
