A new alternative: toffee.
I've been meaning to try it for a while, but only got round to
experimenting this evening making a crook for a baroque trumpet. It works
Here's something I thought about. I am currently working on Strauss 2 and
I'm one of those players who uses a lot of B flat horn - almost to the point
where I may get a single B flat just as a cheap back up horn in case I need it.
I'm well aware that some notes are not readily available on

I've wanted the Morley Pegge for a long time but it's out of print! Hopefully
the IHS can get it re-printed someday.

This site searches a bunch of book sellers in a few seconds. I just
entered 'morley-pegge' in the author space and some copies came up.
There may be a competing book by him, French Horn (Instruments of
Orchestra S.) What's that? But lower down, you will find
Hello Kit,
You have me very curious about this.
Did you freeze the pipe with the toffee inside it ?
I had a bit of brass tubing about 12mm diameter and 40cm long, and I
annealed it before starting (heat it until it glows dull red, then cool
it). Then I drilled a shallow hole in a bit of wood
This comment inspired me to go to Google Books to look for it. Check
this out: Google has digitized the book (I searched for the author,
Morley-Pegge), and copies came up, but it is not available to download
in full pdf form or even preview or snippet views - too bad. But click
on one of the
With the understanding that I have very limited knowledge about this,
I'll observe that my Bb single with five valves is actually a horn in
C with the fifth valve configured so that it stands in Bb. I'm pretty
sure you could get the same thing but half an octave higher: a high F
horn with a valve
Sorry to change the subject, but it was all caps.
I have my copy of The French Horn by R. Morley Pegge here. Some notes on the
Evolution of the Intrument and its Techniques is the subtitle on the title
page inside. So we are all talking about one book, I think.
I bought mine from a bookstore
I have played through the duos for trumpet and horn by Alec Wilder. Not easy,
but very cool!

Walter's solution to this problem was to build a whole new linkage system for
the thumb valve. As I recall it had three pivot points. One was to make the
reversal and the others were to reduce the amount of movement needed on the
thumb.
Hey, it's been thirty years and I only saw it once.
Hi Kit,
Right, I've obviously missed something here and completely and utterly
misunderstood what you were saying - the last bit of this thread I looked at
was about making horns from ice - I therefore thought you were advocating
making them from toffee (and that you were currently working on
I talked to my repairman over the weekend, and he and I talked about how I
oil my horn. Basically I was over oiling the bearings of the rotors, and in
doing so the oil was covering the sides of the rotors and slowing everything
down. He suggested that I rise out my rotors with rubbing alcohol
Joel, just to clarify, this means that what you've found works for you
is to _not_ unscrew the caps on the rotor and apply oil there, but
just to pull the slides and put oil in that way? I just want to make
sure I understand what you're saying. I've also taken to oiling my
valves this way and it
My German teacher and I were conversing and I found out she plays horn. She
told me that a friend had given her a horn and she knew it was a Holton. We
determined it is a Holton 177. I play on a Holton 179. We looked the specs up
online and it does not seem to have any differances. Does anyone
The 177 has a smaller bell throat and is considered to be a medium large horn,
where the 179 is the large horn and has a larger bell throat.

Steve,
For the most part, the repairman said to leave the caps alone. Maybe once
every 1 or 2 weeks put a drop under the caps just to keep the bearing
lubricated. Since the oil should be thicker, it wont evaporate or move as
fast as the light oil put through the slides. He also suggested I
