[Hornlist] Re: milk in horn

I heard that in Germany, they pour beer in a horn to 'season' it. The idea was to get that nice 'green slime' on the inside of the pipe, thereby making the hornist 'sound better'. I have no idea nor proof that this works. on the other hand, Germans do better to feed beer to their crying babies

Does Southern still publish the big books with everything in them, compiled by Andraud? You get a few of just about everybody's etudes in there and you can see what you'd like to get more of. And it's a good book to take on vacation, you only need one book! I'm with David, I like to explor
