What Long Call do you have ? The one with three separate signals or the one with more signals, all off them separated by fermatas, wher Fermata means a hold.
If the Long Call you have consists of just three signals, it is the Short Call. The Short Call & some further similar Short Calls are from Goetterdaemmerung (Twilight of Gods) first & third act, while the Long Call is from the 2nd act of Siegfried, just 34 or 36 minutes after the beginning, depending on the conductors tempi. The original Short Call is from Siegfried�s Rhine Journey, his boat journey. When cutting the bell of a horn, one has to consider, that the perfect job would require desoldering of the whole bell part perhaps, so the screw upper part (mother) can be slid over from the smaller end to the cut point & solder there, then to cut the bell. The lower screw part (father) is attached easily on the bell. This is the perfect but cost effective method. But, a high classified repair man can cut the bell without desoldering it. But this is a quite tricky operation & rarely performed perfectly even by the specialists. After cutting, they have to squeeze the main branch into the screw (mother), adapt it to fit inside & solder. The rest of the process is the same as in the other method. There is a third way: the screw can be cut in half and soldered on the bell (mother), so the bell can be cut right there along the screw. I have not seen that process, but it seems to be possible. ============================================================ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bubba Sent: Thursday, May 06, 2004 3:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Hornlist] Short Call What is the short call? I have the long call, but have no idea where the short call is located. Also, I have a Holton H179 horn, and I am considering getting it made into a screw-bell horn, in essence, making it a H279. Anyone have any ideas on who can do a good job on this located in or around Tennessee? _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] set your options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/hans.pizka%40t-online.de _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] set your options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
