| I'll just add to what I've heard about the legend of Sheldon the Cat...
I was told that Dave was rather interested in how Sheldon, like most cats, would lie lazily about the house all day and then suddenly be able to perform a remarkable feat such as leaping up to the top of the kitchen counter. Dave was thus inspired to create trumpets which would enable the player to play relaxed and still perform technically difficult feats all while maintaining great tone and intonation.
