Dain bramage perhaps? GG

Gotcha! No need to sew me to a sheet.

I thought I knew what I was doing when I did it, but (as always) I'm open to correction. I had read (and still believe) that because baroque horns were hand made, therefore slightly irregular in the bore, they had lower Q, making it possible -- though difficult -- to play without valves. (Horn players were the elite of baroque orchestras, usually seated on a raised platform as, I read, a mark of honor.) Baroque mouthpieces had relatively larger bores, too, making the player's mouth part of the resonant cavity. Valves were first used to make playing easier. It seems likely that when machine-made instruments made nearly impossible to play without valves, nobody noticed. I could do little about the mouthpiece, but it was easy enough to "modify" the bore. Not needing a section with valves, a bugle's bore is more conical than a trumpet's, hence more compliant to the player's skill.

That trombone that was pulled a long way: was there anything special about the mouthpiece?

Exactly!

I don't know. Perhaps.

The key is to group "brugly" with "other". Then move the initial consonants from the first to the second work. At least that's how I interpreted it.

Anything metallic will have wandering overtones. A pitch fork, metal snares, steel drum (in the extreme!), bells. Even organ pipes made of too stiff material, (pure tin, silver) have a cheap metallic sound.

You can see it for yourself by putting a microphone on on oscilloscope and excite a pitch fork ( or is that tuning fork?).

Thanks. I was slow on the uptake. You could say that I bren badly.

Yabbut, Laura Bush knows how to pronounce "nuclear".

Thanks! Rich

I dun't think so. She's a First *LADY*, rather than *BITCH*. SHe's leraned from her MIL.

Tuning fork. A pitchfork is a trident with slender tines, a tool for pitching hay. You can see one in Grant Wood's picture, "American Gothic" at

That must deal with the chemical composition of pitch :-)
