Confidence seems to be the key. I've played with players that learnt their craft in the US and those that have learnt their craft in the UK. In a 'what horn do you grab?' race most of the US players will grab a C and most of the UK players will grab a Bb for exactly the same piece. The common ground is that they have been players skilled enough to be able to colour the sound of their chosen instrument so that it suits the music they were required to play and also fits the ensemble.

Regards,

Trevor
