Now to take the subject down a few common denominator
levels, to the ranks of the uneducated and definitely
unpaid-- thoughts on conductors of adult amateur
groups. There is much that could be discussed here
among those who chose to think about it at least a
little.
Amateurs play in ensembles for
Looks great so far, but there are a few things I find not to be so helpful:
1. They forgot the corks.
2. It doesn't appear to be tunable.
3. I'll bet Thompson Edition doesn't make a case to fit it.

P.S. Do they make a stop mute for larger horns, too?

Looking at a Conn model list I saw the Schmidt Model 6D made from 1919-1934,
and the Current 6D made from 1934 but there was also another 6D made with
the same dates as the Schmidt. Here is the blurb from the model list:

Hans,
Maybe you have answered one crucial question.What is
the difference between the old greats and the
newer"super stars"? In one of your most recent posts
you mentioned LISTENING. Listening is One of the
qualities lacking both in modern conductors and modern
quasi Musicians. Even at the highes

But unknown in this hemisphere. Steve, you said everything

Debbie, I have no experience with Giulini, but did several
concerts with Leinsdorf & Solti. So I cannot agree with
you, that they were not verbose, in contrary, both could
explain very well how they wanted the things, very
illustrative indeed. Well, we had no problems to understand
Leinsdorfs fine
Hello Steve, then you know perfectly whom I had in mind when
I mentioned the rare hidden gems, - people like you, people
who love the music and people whos heart beats at the right
place & in the right rhythm.
There are a lot of conductor careers, jump started careers,
promoted by a clever crew of

Hans, I agree conceptually, but let's talk about an older generation of
conductors so as not to offend, Leinsdorf, Solti and Guilini none of which in

their means of interpretation, as the first attempt resulted
in zero effect but one single reply. Are you to cautious to

Alon,
If you re-read my post, you might notice I use the
words, "my opinion" " I Think" etc very often. I will
repeat;"I think" many horns with a cut bell become too
