Boosey Hawkes should be the right choice.
The Schoeck Society told me one or two years ago, that they plan to get the
concerto published again soon, but no progress since. I tried to get the
rights, but they declined. So we have to wait or to search around for a used

I guess I'm odd man out on this one.
After more than thirty years of teaching, I've
settled into the Holton DC and the Bach 3 as my
beginning mouthpieces of choice.
Both are deeper than what others have mentioned,
and both have thinner rims, too. The Bach 3 rim
seems a bit strange, at first,
I tried buying three different horns from them
about six months ago. It turned out that all three
had been sold, but were still being listed on both
their web site, and on hornplayer.net.
Here it is six months later, and all three horns
are still listed as for sale. Guess they need to

Hello
My copy is an authorised photocopy from Boosey Hawkes' archive. I
think it's still possible to get it this way from BH.
There is a good recording of the Schoeck Concerto with Bruno Schneider,
the Swiss horn player. (Successor to Ifor James as Professor of horn in
Freiburg, Germany.)

On the other hand, they did sell the horns quite quickly and for a good

I bought a Natural Horn*** from Horns-a-plenty two years ago, and had my
Paxman model 40 overhauled by Alan fairly recently. Both transactions were
entirely satisfactory. I'm not sure why Alan doesn't keep his website up to

I actually emailed them once and they mentioned the horn was sold. I don't
think the website is kept up to date, but calling or emailing them is your best
bet to find out the current stock.

Do you really use soap? I know what happens when I try to wash my hair with soap.

Hi,
Just a quick question on a point raised by Paul Navarro. Paul

access to very high purity alcohol but I had never considered it for valve
cleaning before it does make sense that it might help though. So the
lamp oil is not manufactured to be used as a lubricant
I don't think lamp oil is manufactured at all. More on that in a moment...

enough to be sold for a few dollars for 24 ounces
I sure hope we all know why valve oil costs more than lamp
Alcohol is often used to clean up after cleaning with solvents because it evaporates
with no resedue.
Alcohol, however, absorbs water quite readily, and in large quantity. If its stored
for a long period, you may find it is 20-30% water. Not only that, since the water is
precipitated from
Quit when you ned glasses.
As a student, I had a horn whose valves would sludge up on
occasion. I would give it an alchohol rinse from time to time it
freed them up considerably. I added red food coloring in the
alchohol bottle and would rinse rinse rinse till the water came

Shampoo is detergent. Quite different from soap, but there are also some specialty
soaps, like Murphy's, that you might be refering to.

Oh, I would tell you about the axle grease on the tuning slides, but perhaps
another day.
That's funny that you should mention that; it's exactly what I use. One tub

Ultra high vacuum grease works well on slides. Apiazon is my favorite, but a bit
pricey unless you have a free source opened tubes.

Dear All
I understand that they no longer represent Durk in the UK (this information
was from a telephone conversation with Alan Wiltshire about a month ago).
Regards
Paul A. Kampen (W. Yorks UK)
Alan Wiltshire is the nicest guy and will answer any questions you may need. Don't go
by the webpage most of the horns there are references to what they have to sell. He
deals in different horns everyweek due to his high turnover rate. Email is the best
way to get ahold of him.
Hope this

The Schoeck Concerto is one of the works we are most often requested to
supply, and so we keep copies of the Boosey edition in stock and have it
