hi all!

tony, it's interesting that you said that about greg - for ages i've felt that it was much easier to play high notes quietly than to play them loud. i may give greg's 'method' a go and see what come of it. i've always had a break on high Bb and B that i never can seem to get rid of - i've messed with different horns, mouthpieces, etc... no luck. also i remember back in the days playing something like laurie frink's "flexandos" up an octave, but very quietly, and i always felt great afterward.

greg pulled the lead chart on 'danca illusoria' and blew a couple of Bb's right out of the gate to check out his chops that night (the guy made 'em sound an octave lower btw, my god!) at any rate, it'll be an interesting method to pursue/peruse for a bit.
