Hi,
one of my students forgot to close the zipper on his case while walking out the classroom, so the horn (from music school) fell down, bumped on the floor and was bent like a banana.
Today I got the horn back from repair (not the shop where I normally have my horns repaired, more of a brass specialist ) and decided to try if it is playable before handing it over to the 8 year old boy (in the meantime I found a YAS 23 which is now overhauled, we will swap horns when it is finished). Repair was €60,-
The horn is a Venus AS300 which I bought about 12 years ago for €510,-. It has been rented several times and never had any repair or maintenance.
I thought I'd try it against my 2 Selmers, a Reference 54 which is my backup horn and a silver Mark VII I normally play.
So I recorded 2 songs (My Foolish Heart and Stardust) using the Venus and in one song the Ref 54 and one song the Mark VII.
Can you tell the number of the expensive horns?
1,2 is My Foolish heart with one of the Selmers and the Venus.
3,4 is Stardust with one of the Selmers and the Venus.
Cheers, Guenne
(and don't forget: this is just fun and curiosity )
