I have unilateral hearing loss in my right ear...i.e. I am completely deaf on my bell ear. Sometimes, it can be difficult to hear myself and tune when a group is at full volume as a result. One thing I do to help is to pull the bell (briefly...or you will inhibit the bell's ringing) into my right

Every interval has a unique vibration; for most music there are only a small number of intervals, around 12. Once you learn the vibrations for each interval, then you can play them in tune in any octave. E.g. the vibration for a 3rd interval is the same no mater what octave it is in.

Just out of curiosity, is there a movement afoot to spell the name of one of our favorite composers "Haendel" instead of "Handel?" Was it Händel? I'd hate to think of how my name would be spelled if it were spelled the way it's pronounced in Sweeden so an approximation of that pronounciatio

My understanding of the matter, from informal research I did a few months ago, is that Handel changed his name to "Handel" when he became a naturalized English citizen; hence, "Handel" in English-speaking countries, just like "handle." (Continentals probably still use the umlaut because they don'
