Thank you all for your input regarding your experience of sound changes
after silver plating your instrument, but I was not interested to hear
your experience, as I have my own allready.
I was I am still very interested about the rationale behind the sound
change as explained, so to know more
Just a thought - how much heat would be transferred to metal under these
plating conditions? Would it be similar to the cryo process - in that the
returning to normal room temp that allows the metal to relax further (i.e.
the heating up of the brass) and not the freezing of the brass - if the
Hello Simon, the parts are not spezial heated except for the ultra sonic
bath which works at best at temperatures between 75 85 degrees
Celsius. The parts (horns) are left in the ultra sonic cleaning device
(including the liquid) for between 2,5 to 3,5 minutes. This cannot make
any difference at

Well, in the first place, there aren't very many scientists on the horn

know and some know they don't know.
Hello Paul, long time friend, just one competent answer would be enough.
It would alse be good, if the readers would read the questions
carefully, as they are serious. One might have a friend working in the

I'm new to the horn; without going into a lot of detail, let's just say I'm
not new to music. Please forgive me if I talk about notes in concert pitch

transposing instrument before so it's just easier for me.
A question: why is

Hi,
Bob Routch (assuming you are not referring to him and not the horn maker
Dan? Rauch) does not appear to be a current member of Local 802. There is

There are many scientists and engineers on the list. You can tell a scientist's
answer because it's usually qualified with some reservations. We know we don't
know all the answers. That's why most scientists don't make good politicians.
So far it seems that the measured data indicate that plating

Fascinating instrument, this horn. Thanks again to you and to everyone who

So, Steve with the perfect pitch, which instrument was your first choice

Steve,
Since I'm in digest mode, someone may have already answered this
question before I get to it. But to make a long story short,
This concert D you speak of is not available as an in-tune harmonic on
the F horn. To play it open would require much adjustment, either with
lip or the hand, and

I was wondering if anyone can recommend any interesting good quality pieces

I see there is a Christmas Carol by a certain I. Storfer in Mr. Köbls

Does anyone know if this is a nice piece? And what kind of style?
Thank you all
The subject of fingering is one of those subjects that some of the pros feel strongly
that they are the only ones qualified to answer definitively. From my own experience,
just about every horn is different with regard to permissable fingerings. My main
