Keep your eye out for an old style 668! I didn't think I was going to manage
to get my hands on one, but there was one advertised on the Hornplayer.net
website, and he was in the UK too!
Of course, they vary from horn to horn, and the contrast between the two
668's I played on was phenomenal!
In a masterclass with James Watson recently, he said that if your body wants
pressure (particularly for playing high) then give it pressure. BUT, in
another part of your body. This is obviously easier to do on a trumpet, as
they can sqeueze around the valves with their left hand.
