  1. And my knowledge of popular music is, I'm sure, much less than yours of the classical genre. I was in high school when the Beetles became a smash in the country. I never could understand why. C
  2. Steve, You've probably got the wrong time frame on when the $75 was listed. Yes, today, and even in the 1990s, major orchestra players made more than that. But there was an earlier time when that was good money indeed, especially for women. You've never heard of Dennis Brain? Or Barry Tuckwell? Odd. Herman Baumann would be less of surprise. There aren't a huge number of notable horn soloists, but there are a few now and were a few back then. There are many concertos written for piano and violin, fewer for cello. Fewer still for horn. But you'd be amazed at how many there are. Here's a list of horn concertos by well-known composers. It leaves out concertos by other, lesser-known composers; that list is even longer: Bach, 1, Quantz, 4, Telemann, 6, Vivaldi, 2, Danzi, 1, Michael Haydn, 2, Joseph Haydn, 4, L. Mozart, 1, W.A.Mozart, 4, Bellini, 1, Franz Strauss, 1, Gliere, 1, Hindemith, 1, Jacob, 1, R Strauss 2. C
  3. Sounds suspiciously like a religious element. C
  4. Throw in some time travel and you'll have a winner.
  5. I see that grin your avatar is wearing, and can't read what you wrote here without thinking a similar grin was on your face when you wrote it.
  6. Huh. I hadn't realized they had stories with those names. But there was no copying. Both those guys are good friends of mine. C
  7. At least yoyu can imagine what the parents' favorite TV show was. c
  8. When you're my age, anyone under 60 is young.
  9. Very well-written story so far from a brilliant young author. Well, I have no idea if he's young, But he sounds like he is. C
  10. Musicality and mature sound are invariably absent in young wind and brass players. They don't feel the music. They're too busy playing the notes. Even when the marking is for rutabaga. C
  11. Both gentlemen are asesome dudes.
  12. Twenty-two and a half feet, if you want to be exact.
  13. Glad to see you're into it! The Glière's Nocturne is standard student literature, assuming it's an advance student. I get a little tired of hearing it, actually! C
  14. The only other person who absolutely adored Distorter Perspectives that I was aware of was Gordon Klopfenstein. He even wrote senveral additional chapters to it. He wanted more about the yonger brother. Otherwise, I think the story went rather unnoticed. It was a very difficult story to write, but I think it made the point I was trying to make. Thanks, Steve.
