Actually, I have more respect for your particular instrumental subculture than most. I can't imagine how frightening it would be to be sitting in the horn section, in a performance with a major orchestra in front of an huge audience ... counting a 200 bar tacet, waiting to enter on a high g, completely solo. Lord, I broke a cold sweat just writing this.

Respectfully submitted,
