You are incorrect, sir. Perhaps your mistake stems
from the fact that you do not play with professional
trumpet players. The first harmonic (fundamental) of
the 4.5 foot Bb trumpet (one octave about the
fundamental of the Bb horn) exists and is easily
playable by a professional. I am surprised that
Isn't that the truth...

The MP3 players I mentioned have an option of recording in 48kbps WAV
format. That's about as digital as you can get. There will be no audio
degradation
at that resolution as far as I'm aware.
Plus you can click and drag the files to your computer and burn them later.

Chris,
If you can swing it, the Edirol R1 is a very cool thing, as it records at 24
bits. MP3 format is a drag for music with any degree of dynamic change. This

The issue of intonation on horn is difficult for me also. The same
problems happen for me regardless of the equipment I have used, an old
King single-F, or my more modern 'pro' level horns.
A horn (or just about any brass instrument) does not really 'want' to play
in tune without exact control by
I would suggest:

Both quite short. But the first one shows range & musicality, while the
second piece works well as a demonstration of musical phantasy.

That fact is the reason why not tuning the horn WITH concert a, but

Hello. I am seeking information on the piece 'Poème Nocturne' by Pr. van
Eechaute.
I would like to know the dates of this composer, and more about the piece.
I'm playing it on my next recital on the 25th of this month, so I'm looking for
more background about it.
Also, how does one pronoun
In my edition of Haydn 2, the last movement has a figure noted "Triple 8th 8th
8th 8th" but, I think, all of the recordings have play the triple like 16th
16th 8th.
What's the deal?
Chris
(At the very least the Baumann recording I have plays it like this.)

As I understand it, factitious notes are notes whose 1st harmonic doesn't exist

because higher harmonics are reinforced.
