If you think the main purpose of a high Eb branch is to make transposition easier, then you are not ready for a triple. A triple is a heaveier horn than a double, has more inherent compromises, and is therefore more difficult to play. Will this be your _only_ horn? Do you want to make things more difficult for yourself? I'm not personally interested in debating these issues, but I urge you to think about them for yourself. _______________________________________________ post: horn@memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
