Hello Friends,
I have read this thread with much amusement more than anything else. Although I am
aware that for some individuals, both drill work and playing is important in their
life (albeit for sometimes differing reasons). Might I suggest that the concept of
drill related playing was
Hi.
i would like to ask if any of you know how much a second-hand Paxman model
20 would costs. I have come in contact with someone who has been played it
for 7 years, professionally. She is selling it at S$5000, about US$2500. Is
it a bargain?

If it is still in excellent condition, yes. I sold mine for $3700.00

I wonder how many High School Marching Bands Hans played in? Marching Band is
different than any European community band, and to be able to preach about The USA's
high school band programs you better have real credentials. I have lived the pain for
6 years in High School and College and I
Robert - I should mention that I didn't have a choice. The rehearsal hall was directly
across from our front shop and believe it or not, they could be heard over the radial
arm saw and the drill press. Thank goodness the table saw was more forceful. After all
that I have never again wondered
Horn students who have no horn teacher and who are being taught by a Middle School
Band Director who has not ever had any horn 'exposure' are surely at a dis-advantage,
with either an F or Bb single horn.
And if the instructor is not aware of the difference and how to tell which is which
Professor Hans howled:
First: we do not invite candidates from outside Europe. They must live
here before we invite them. Citizenship does not matter (they actually
originated from 3 continents, but not the USA)
Second: tuning has nothing to do with taste. As tuned means something
absolute there
John,
You had me laughing until I was in tears. Bravo to that director for
putting the marching band into context.

Michael, you are on the right path. You know, why many people like
marching marching band ? Marching marching in the band does not
requite much brain much responsibility.
Hoss, have you ever auditioned, I mean, really, for a professional
orchestra ? You have no idea about. A professional orchestra is
different from a community or conservatory orchestra. Tuning is not the
business of the committee. The committee expects, that the candidates
present themselves with a

I would like to know whether Professor Pizka includes professional military bands in
this sweeping generalisation. If so,
Attention, Tony Stratton!
Please phone and/or E-Mail me immediately.

Prof Pizka and others-
I respect you for your amount of knowledge regarding the horn and horn
playing.
On the other hand, You have yet to prove to me that you have accurate
knowledge of what marching band requires. Your comment Marching marching

I am extremely impressed. I don't want it to replace any gig I might get paid
for, but it would be quite useful in filling some hecklephone part or
subcontrabass tuba part so that you wouldn't have to go scavengering around for those
odd instruments.
