have
played the 868 in Brass, the 668V in Nickel and the 668 II. They are all
really good horns but do not measure up, in my opinion, to the original
Custom series (861, 862 and 863).

I do not have much time today, so I jotted some miscellaneous thoughts for
you
1. Blow out ALL your air during the rests and while preparing to perform.
It feels unnatural the first few times you do this on stage, but it makes
you take in 100% fresh air. Fresh air is better then the st
From now on when you play a horn quartet, know that you are
participating
in an ancient holy ritual. Instead of asking, "What shall we play

Carson,
Because of the flare of the horn bell, the last node of the wave length is a few
inches outside of the length of the horn. Placing you hand in the bell intensifies
