I hope you're preparing with a good technical education. I much prefer a pure science, like physics, over more specialized engineering courses. That will prepare you to read meaningful advanced articles searching for solutions. A basic physics course will introduce you to Helmholz and resonator

Unless I have missed it, no one has mentioned the Concerto in Eb for 2 horns and strings from Tafelmusik, part III. Telemann wrote many more works (concerti, suites, overture-suites) with two or more horns. Follow the links below to see some recordings of a number of them (but definitely not all

I am not sure about that. Last year I had Lawson go over my 8D, when I got it back I found my range had not increased at all, my articulation was still what one could expect of an earnest amateur and well, nothing had changed at all. Should I ask for my money back? > Ken wrote: > "I guarantee yo

Dear Matthew, just reading books about that, is not the right method to get into that stuff. One has to learn first, how the mechanical functions work with different material, how the opening & closing of the valves work, what influx the details will have on the sound column if valves go into actio

Hi Paul, I was once told that this "English" tradition was amongst the recording orchestras (i.e. BBC because of something to do with mike placement and/or early recording techniques. I didn't think they used this seating plan when they were perfoming live. Cheers, (and ready to be corr

Larry, this does not work. Why gripping so high (really high) ? If you make a mistake in Konzertstueck, nobody will complain. But if you play Oberon a thousand times without any lightest scratch on the beginning, nobody would talk, but if you ruin it just ONCE, all people would speak about it for g
