Coincidentally, I have just finished listening to all the "Original
Philadelphia Woodwind Quintet" recordings with Mason Jones. What a player.
So delicate, with perfect ensemble playing. And I hear he was pretty good
orchesterally too.

Hi Milton,
I think the Selected Duets for French horn Compiled by H. Voxman publish
by Rubank is what you want. My beginning student right now has this as her
etude book. She works on each part then we try the duet. She is coming
along fast with this.

The process of recording and editing are actually quite similar to the days
of analog. In fact, the processes really haven't changed. Some producers
and engineers may do things a little differently (some of which is driven by
the technology but most is not), but o
My daughter's in 6th grade and we play through stuff in the yellow Voxman

The loss of a regional difference in "sound" isn't limited to musical
sound. Consider regional accents, idioms, and dialects in spoken language.
The fact is that if you record something for everyone to listen to, and
everyone listens to it, then we all start to sound the same over time.
First, the
I wonder if part of this is due to having a lot of national auditions where
they already know what sound they want and it typically isn't a sound that is
unique or even regional. I know a local orchestra along the gulf coast (who
will remain nameless) who was always looking for a Phil Myers s

I never heard this story about Mason, directly or personally but if it came
from Fred Hinger, there must be truth in it. In the old days of recording
the orchestra would play until someone clammed, not necessarily a horn player.

Hi Milton -
I wrote/arranged a couple Christmas duets (Frosty and Rudolph) this past
season with this kind of structure. The first part is relatively easy with
common statements of the melodic themes and some easy-to-understand

The conductor could use the original score plus his ears. The regular
score would be available from Universal Edition, Vienna, perhaps, but I
am not sure if the have it on sale. Normally they have these things on
