Regarding the TSA letter. When I was confronted with my horn by a certain overly sassy stewardess, she said Well, we don't have time to check on that, so just get on the plane. I had an earful, but my horn was safe. The better method is to humbly ask to put the horn in the crew's locker

the VPO did a US tour I believe two years ago. I saw them do Schubert 4(I think) and New World in Severance Hall. It wasn't a clean concert for the horn section, but they sounded fantastic. The principal used a single (high) F horn for a couple passages in new world. It's interesting that they

Some people notice a difference in the sound, good or bad. For those who think it's not as good as a cut bwll, I suppose to them that's the downside. Personally, I'm not sure. I had a 668V cut and it played BETTER. The ring rounded out the metal a bit, so maybe that's why. When you have

Re: [Hornlist] Custom VS. Non Custom Yams

In all due respect, while the non-custom Yamahas IMHO are good horns, they don't really compare to the custom models. And I would think most people would agree. Moreover, the consistency on their custom models are pretty tight. Having owned an 863, a 668V, now a 667V, and having played my

One piece that should get more exposure than it does is the Berg Horn-Lokk. It's unaccompanied and recorded ridiculously well by Froydis. Others that come to mind immediately, while I would say are not obscure, but are often overlooked or overshadowed. En Foret is super-standard in the horn

The other way of looking at that of course is that a smaller, more agile instrument in a large group will project easier, allowing one to play with less effort. Here is a question to the professionals on the list: How often, and under what circumstances, do you switch between different styles
