When it comes to protecting the ears, there's no question: use the plugs. Every
time your ears ring, you've done some damage.
Etymotic http://www.etymotic.com sells musician's earplugs for $12. I use them.
I also use them in noisy environments so I can hear speech more easily. They

Yes, Farkas does write about the flat chin. It is not in the Art of Horn
Playing. It is in the Art of Brass Playing. He includes illustrations on pp.
17 and 18 (of the Wind Music, Inc. edition, 1989). These photographs

Hello list membe
Bravo Daniel, so D# & Eb are not the exactly the same. I

We have to have a closer look to these warm-ups & their
abuse. Also in Europe, we had & still have similar things
than the Farkas warm-ups: The old fashion Josef Schantl
method. It was abused the same way as is Farkas. Teachers &
students as well thought that all exercises have to be
