My Holton 200 descant also has a stopping valve on both sides --
although it's a bit awkward to hold both thumb triggers at once. My
Paxman compensator also has stopping valves on both sides -- so maybe
it's not so uncommon.

Perhaps not the Danzi, but what of the many Stich concertos in the key of E?
It might be better to just get a horn with slides in F#/B natural at that
point and just play the piece as if it were written in Eb.

I currently play a Paxman 23L, but am looking for a new horn. I have found
the resistance to be a bit much, especially in the high register. Does
anyone have some suggestions for horns to look at that are more free blowing

I've been raving on the list here quite a bit about my recent purchase.
After trying virtually every major brand and type available in the US, I

Well not sure how you categorize "rare." It was done, rather well IMHO, by
the DSO last spring.

Also, both the NSO and the Marine Band are doing it in May here in DC.
Should be great on both accounts!

Hi Joel,
There are so many different manufacturers out there, it's very
difficult, if not impossible, to recommend one particular horn over
another without actually trying them. Having said this, Paxman does
make a fine instrument.
If you are not doing so already, it may be worth your whi
Maybe I'm obtuse...or worse, dumb.
But wasn't it written for valved instruments??

Joel,
If you do find that your mechanics are fine, you might be just as well-served
to add a different leadpipe to your horn. A lot can change in that small
section of tubing. There are many fine shops that do custom leadpipe work, and
it can almost make it feel like you're getting a new ho
Yes, but not five valved triple horns with top c extension and bar.
Period instruments - There have been several periods in music (I've lived
through a couple of them!)
During the romantic period they tended to use single horns with piston
valves and generally F or Eb crooks

I got my Hoyer from Scott in December. I love it. I was just at

Yesterday the local classical radio station played this abomination.
The Concert Piece arranged for orchetra and solo piano.
I informed their DJ of how I was disappointed that he would play such a thing.

Would that be the Dallas Symphony or the Detroit Symphony? A number of years
ago Karl Pituch gave tickets to "lurking" list member Bob Losin. He shared with
me and John Kowalchuk. It was a very good performance.

as the nearly 100 year old World class Detroit Symphony Orchestra.

With Lowell Greer on orchestral horn accompanying.
I think that Detroit performance was Jan 2nd, 2002.
