Re: high range breaking point

Interesting comments on the equipment, Mike. I know that on my horn, D, Eb, F, and F# are perfectly playable, then A, B, and C....but that high E is almost impossible to find, and the G is occasionally problematic for me (though it's getting better..). Yet when I tried that Phaeton a while back, it practically sang the E as easily as though I were playing it an octave lower (yet on that particular horn, the C was squirelly), and the G came out just fine.

So it would seem the equippment does have an impact...but surely we can overcome it. So then....how best to do so?
