      I had to get a replacement horn in the middle of the school year, and the one they gave me was brand new, the school bought it that year. I refused to take back my old one. Now marching band rolls around and I’m expecting to get the old, rusting mello I had last year. Surprise! The whole section got new mellos. Like, still wrapped up in plastic, not a single fingerprint new. We all were just staring in awe for the first half of practice.

      Doesn't sound rushed to me. Do you know the part? The rhythm is trickier than you'd think just hearing it without seeing the score (each of the three iterations starting with the perfect fourth begin on a different beat of the 6/8).

    @Haeronthegreat they both have their cons and pros and areas of praise. I think they are equally impressive. What is most interesting is that you have to develop your low register before you can develop a great high register. You can play low horn for quite a long time, but it takes a lot of endurance building to play high for a long time.
