| Re: 4 Valve Bb Horn?
With moveable 1st and third slides, the fourth valve doesn't add anything to the intonation except lower the instrument a forth. That is the fun part. The downside is that usually three valve instruments (ok, my experiences have been of piccolos and Eb's) have better response.
Sounds like a fun thing to try, though!
