I'm not too familiar with the Yamaha horns except that their manufacturing control is
so good that the student models are apt to be as good as, or better, than the hand
made custom version of the same instrument. Try before you buy.
The Conn 6D design was the original Conn professional model.
What about the non-Conn 6D look-alikes (e.g., Olds, Buescher)?

The Bueschers were stencil horns made by Conn. Internal factory designation
was 110D, I believe and they were made in the middle 1950's.

Wrong pronunciation of the word Dino there, Fred. I think Prof Pizka
refers to Fred Flintstone's dog. Even I am old enough to remember the family
pet. When
I need some help with where to find the gentlemen that had transcribed
violin solos for horn. I would be interested in purchasing a copy of them.
Can any one help me with the gentlemens name and how to contact him. You
can email off this hornlist if you wish. Thanks

Would you prefer another pronounciation ae,g, die-no or dyno ?
Resistance: without any resistance, it would make it hard to play a very
soft p or pp, right. That is the greatest problem for most players, old,
young, skilled or less skilled.
Yes, there is some paranoia within the community of

Steve, both the 6D and the 567 are great high school level horns and could
be played beyond that. I started on a Conn single F horn but was moved up
to a 6D as a sophomore and junior. As a senior I got an 8D but sfter high
school graduation I had to take a college horn, which put me back on a

In the sixties, I seem to recall the 6D and 28D (brass 8D)
having similar prices, and the NS 8D cost about $100 more.

I just did some written work and figured out that indeed there would be
theoretical 'double flat' key signatures for d flat, g flat and c flat:
The c # minor scale:
C# D# E F# G# A B C#
Which translates to this in d flat minor:
Db Eb Fb Gb Ab Bbb Cb Db
So you would get a 7 flat key
I pray to the theory gods there is no music written in those keys...
that would make for excedrin filled days

Indeed. However, it might actually be quite satirical to try to write
something with 7 sharps and 5 double sharps...
*spolier*
Its just the key of C...

However I wonder how many minutes it would take most musicians to see the
humor in that and not be thoroughly angry
Makes me want to do that now... its like the next degree of
Cage-humour. Except this is intentionally funny

No doubt, you got it right regarding the Munich Opera. Thanks

Less superb, but
far more numerous, is the collection of fossilized farts on display
in the administration building of my university. No doubt the
Munich Opera is similarly blessed.
