[Hornlist] NHR - we are not the only ones
You will be thrilled to know that current discussion on the Flute List
concerns the metals used to make flute head joints, sizes of head
joints, the precise composition of solder that is used to keep them
together, and the underlying physics thereof. The conversation is every
bit as fascinating there as the parallel and perennial horn conversation
always is here. If you can't get enough of this sort of thing, tune in
fast, as it seems to be abating.
However, one of their own, Nina Perlove, has this YouTube video
http://youtube.com/watch?v=zdaqVS-voIo in which she plays the same
snippet on a flute with head joints made of ten different metals and she
asks all to guess which metal is which.
Our transverse compatriots are way ahead of us.

Re: [Hornlist] Hearing yourself on the Radio for the first time
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.

I was talking about exactly this with a BBC World Service recording engineer friend who plays in the BBC Elstree Band with me. He felt that simple microphone setups which one might expect to replicate the audio experience of someone in a concert hall would never deliver a decent recording. On topic, I also found out from him that a concert recording I made with the BBC Band, of a concerto which the MD of the band wrote for me, is regularly broadcast on the BBC World Service. We recorded it for a sell-at-the-end-of-a-concert CD - I have never actually heard it broadcast myself.

[Hornlist] Telemann
Hi, I'm searching for the string and harpsicord parts for the G.P. Telemann Concerto #1 in F Major for Two Horns, Strings and Continuo. TWV 52:F3. So far, all I can find is a keyboard transcription for it. Even the University of Miami library doesn't own the parts. Can any of you point me to a publisher, or failing that, any other way to obtain them? Thanks for your help.

[Hornlist] Re: Berlin Hornists
To clarify the exchange a bit, I was able to contact Eric Borninkhof, the proprietor of Rimskys-Horns, through the contact form on the site and he has agreed to sell me a copy, payable by PayPal. If you want to write to him directly about this CD, you can do it at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] He may have more copies for sale (and you can also pre-order an interesting looking Wagneriana disc by the Capricorno Horn Ensemble and get copies of two CDs by the Vienna Horns). On the other hand, you may prefer to wait for Alexander to finish their efforts to get a distributor for the disc or try Ken Pope [EMAIL PROTECTED], who seems to have some copies that he will be putting on sale (and save a bit on international postage).

After my posting, I spent (way too much) time looking for a location that offered the CD or any information about it and came up with zilch. Berliner Philharmoniker, Gebr. Alexander and all of my usual horn/import CD sources (Ulrich Koebl, TAP, Paxman, Osmun, jpc.de) were all of no avail. This was particularly frustrating since I realized that I had confused this Berlin Horn ensemble CD with the Vienna Horns, Art of Brass CD that is also on the Rimsky-Horns site and saw that I didn't have a copy of it yet (will remedy that ASAP). That site is helpful if you want to see what 'Opera looks like but, I wasn't able to purchase it. Anyone else have any luck?

David, Everyone is at a different level, and we all have diffrent interests. I had a Laugh out loud moment reading your post. Thank you.
