Does anyone know what the status is of Giardinelli mouthpieces?
I placed an order for a few gold-plated rims in November and every 2 weeks
they push the estimated delivery date back 2 more weeks. I guess the price
of the rims really was too good to be true.

How do you deal with a horn that's too small for your left hand?
I've got fairly big hands and the valves on this new-to-me Holton (Thanks,
Dave Weiner, for the info) are set particularly low. The low height
combined with the relative small size of the horn and the valve placement
means my
With string action, the valve levers can be adjusted upward or down farther.
You could add a leather hand guard which would move you out a fraction; and you
may need to curve your fingers as if grasping a ball loosely. This should
move the tips of your fingers back a bit; quite a bit if your

As I understand it, Giardinelli mouthpieces are now
being made by the Holton company. With the recent
sale of Holton, who knows what's going on. All I
know is I ordered five S 16 cups,

I trust you mean K. 447. K. 477 is a vocal work written for soprano Nancy
Storace. There is evidence that the traditional date of K. 447, 1783, is
incorrect. Some scholars, including Wolfgang Plath and Franz Giegling
(NMA), theorize that it is from about 1787 based on the handwriting,

summer. The paddles were far too low for comfortable operation and the
mechanical valve action allowed no adjustment. Problem solved by cutting a

Steven, I will try to lift the secret somewhen, if time
circumstances will allow. There are modern technical ways,
to look behind ink splash or other obscuring entries. The
number 3 on the front page is inserted later anyway, so I
have to look behind, to know what Mozart wrote first. As I
