What a coincidence! Last night at orchestra rehearsal our second horn player's
3rd valve Bb slide dropped to the floor while he was playing! He stopped
playing, picked up the slide & replaced it before he continued. I've never

I use standard slide grease on all my slides except the F slide which is
rather looser than the others - on that I use Paxman bees-wax. I bought the

fingerings. I just wish it was a different sort of test... maybe the
kind where your teacher just asks you to do something on the fly (not in
the middle of a concert). One of the other downsides to this test was
