> Any interesting stories? > More years ago than I care to count, BBC Radio 3 decided to record part of a concert of the University of London Orchestra, where I was playing 1st horn at the time, for broadcast as part of their "Youth Orchestras of the World" series.
One of the pieces recorded was the orchestral suite from "West Side Story". In the horn solos, I had thought I was producing plenty of sound, but when I heard it later on the broadcast, the solos didn't come through nearly as much as I had intended. It taught me a very important lesson about projecting sound so that it will be right when heard by someone well back in the audience.
