So there I was, subbing on 4th for the local community orchestra. (I got the plea for me to sub with two rehearsals to go, including dress.) One piece was a premiere of an orchestral arrangement of a piece that included handbells. It was dress rehearsal and it turned out that there were

The Schott publication is an arrangement by Willy Hess. The first 157 measures of the original manuscript are lost, as is the trio section of the minuet and the entire last movement. Hess recreated the first 157 measures using music from the portions of the original manuscript that survive. Alt

Thank you for your input, everyone. I have, thanks to members of the list, both a Pro Tec case and an "alligator" case for my horn on the way to me, and possibly a gig bag as well. I will try all the options and see how each works out for me, and report back at some later date. -S- On Mon, Feb

[Hornlist] Mignon overture first horn part

Does anyone have the first horn part for the overture to Mignon by Thomas? Even just the not-as-famous-as-it-used-to-be solo would be a great help. I have only the version of the solo in the Pottag excerpt book, and I wonder if and in what ways the "real" version differs. It would save band

I have tried a number of different gig bags, and my preference is the Pro-tec gig bag, which retails for around $135-140. It is well padded and has a substantial stiffener for the bell flare. Despite the feet on the bottom, they do tend to just roll over when you set them down. I've been using
