Anyone playing in a community band or otherwise and using a single F horn? Just a couple of days ago, I took my 1923 Conn 4d out of its case and was reminded just how much I enjoy playing it. It blows _so_ easily and makes quite a nice tone, IMHO.
The trouble, of course, is that it gets tricky to hit notes above the staff on a single F but I have trouble with that aspect of my playing, anyway, so it is not yet a big concern to me. My double is a Yamaha 666, which I like but is heavier to hold and a lot more work to play. Perhaps "training" on the bigger horn and then playing the smaller is the best of all worlds. -S- _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
