I see that Ellen Stone has been identified already, but clicking the link under the picture to the back of the photo, I see the name Mecklin Marrow (at least, that's what it looks like to me). A search on that name, however, suggest perhaps I am looking for Macklin Marrow, conductor, composer, per

Some have thought the 3rd slide is the correct 3 half step length. However, maybe it's 4 half steps--major third. This would give the dedicated finger-wiggling Bb hornist many options... Herb Foster From: Dick Martz To: horn@music.memphis.edu Sent: Monday, M

I tend to agree with the other reply. The 3rd slide isn’t wrapped as tightly as on a normal Bb horn. Speaking in Pythagoras fraction, which is close enough to get the sense of dimensions: The F extension on a Bb horn has to be 1/3 of the theoretical length of the Bb horn (the real horn is a b
