Forgot to say, if you use the Bb-side instead of the usual F-side, it is even easier & speaks well, as the used pitches are 2nd, 3rd (+ 1) & 3rd natural pitches, really easy.
If you would say, playing Rossinis Barbier ouverture on first chair at an early morning rehearsal would be not so nice due to the morning chops, I would agree. ####################################################################################################### Am 17.06.2010 um 15:11 schrieb Hans Pizka: > Hello William, I have to come back to your Flying Dutchman example. > This little solo is in the easiest range, even at early morning: > > notated as g (below space) c - c - g - c - c - g (held), horn in D, > means a third lower.
