After mid life, the Testosterone output (hormones) will decrease. It
starts at age 40-45 for some, while some others have the same output
level as younger fellows in their thirties when they have passed 60 of
age already or more.
This hormone is responsible not only for the sexual functions of
Thanks for advertising my horns, but I have to add a few words. My
section of ten horn players has 9 Alex103 and my Pizka Classic. It is
not the horn alone which makes the music, it is the user, the player.
You can use my horns for the delicatest chamber music play like a
flute, and also to
I went to the Bloomington IHS symposium to try out all the horns, and I wound
up with a Finke Brendan. It is easy to play and is very flexible. I has a
brighter sound than the 8D, but I can even blend with an 8D section with a
stuffy sound (not the true 8D sound). I almost bought a new Holton
Is there anybody with a right hand double for sale ? If so, kindly

Does anyone KNOW where you can get tuning slide locks? Osmuns and Dillons
aren't carrying them as a rule. Dillon's told me they only come to them
from Alexander and only when an order of horns come in. I'm thinking there
must be another avenue to pursue getting these. Any solid suggestions?
I recently asked here whether GS's Mikado had two horn parts. You guys
assured me that it did, and I thought I'd remembered that same thing, but
since there was no 2nd player to play it back then, I had done it alone.
Well, back when I wrote to ask, my wife (also a horn player) had just
snagged a

If you just want something to keep your slides from pushing in too far,
go to the hardware store and get some thin black rubber O-rings. Get
ones that fit snugly over the legs of your tuning slides without sliding
How many ways is there to empty spit out of a double horn?? I empty it
through the spit valve and through the tuning slides on underside but it still
makes that clicked sound it makes when there is spit..

One consideration about the slide locks - especially for the main tuning
slide - is to verify that the horn will fit in its case with the slide(s)
pulled.
With my horn case, if I do not push-in the main tuning slide the horn
does not go into the case properly - but I don't use that slide for
The O rings are the cheapest solution, but they tend to move from where you
put them as the slide is replaced. A better, but more expensive solution, is
to purchase tuning ring locks from Osmun. He is out of stock at the moment,
but I think he will be getting some more soon.

Hans,
Very interesting post!
I will share a bit of my situation in this regard. I had a bariatric
procedure 5 years ago, and have lost over 200 pounds. During the initial
blood testing by the surgeon, he found that my testosterone level was in
his words, the lowest I've ever seen in one of my
Hello Walter,
yes, I forgot to mention the Osteoporosis thing too. Thanks for adding
that. I also had a problem with over weight but not that much. Have lost
25 pounds since August without any medics help, just by changing the
diet (nearly vegetarian now) skipping a meal (nearly) once a while.
