Good question - I would assume at some point that they will be moving forward with it as Steve certainly praised it, and his opinion carries quite a...

I have the Wick 5XR, it is very comfortable (compared to my SM4U).

I notice the schedule isn't up yet. Who is there for clinics and concerts will make my mind up for me

I will make every effort to go and meet a lot of you! Dennis

I feel the same about past cars and motorcycles (and maybe one or two horns)…. :)

Because Tempe is a driveable distance from where I live in California, and I typically take two weeks off from work in this general time frame, I may...

I'd recommend that you stick the Adams in a closet, pull it out for servicing as needed and to just caress the horn as inclined. SOME day you might...

What came of the Mead Mythos project? G.

Hmm, well if it is a long drive from Dallas, what is it from Florida? I was considering going (I have been to the past two ITEC's), but that was...

thinking about it. it would be a hell of a drive from Dallas

I sure would like to attend but I will not be able to. I still remember the ITEC I attended in Greensboro, NC back in 2002. It was awesome! For...

I'd like to second what Sara says! Don't let a bad performance get you down. It really seems like a lot of pressure to put on yourself for...

I’d love to attend one of these one day, but I will probably have to wait another 5 years or so when I retire and can have time to travel. I’m lucky...

I noticed good progress with "Daily Routines for Euphonium" by David Vining: https://www.mountainpeakmusic.com/daily-routines-for-euphonium/

Brad Edwards Stuff: Lip Slur Melodies — https://www.hornbonepress.com/books/ls-lsm/ Patterns and Snippets —...

You can add some O-rings of the proper size to the nipples of the bottom valve caps to stop the valve trough from rattling. I use these pictured...

Thanks, I will give them a try then :)

A fellow euph player in one of my bands made a piece of hard, bendable plastic tube (those white ones, idk if they have metal in them?), cut holes in...

Absolutely! There are many great books about brass playing and the euphonium that you can explore. Here are a few suggestions: "The Brass Gym" by...

Someone should make a universal belly guard. I would love to use one on my Neo.

My Dolce came with a grime gutter that doesn't make any noise at all, except when I take it off. A silver plated horn with a gold-plated grime...

All the mouthpieces I have and use have been replated: not that they had anything wrong with them, but I prefer the smooth feel the browning leaves...

My project involves interposing a suitably shaped Teflon disc between the water collector and the nipples of the caps so as not to damage the plating...

A friend was taking her instrument to a repairman and I gave her my Wick 4AL Heritage to get the shank trued. (I had dropped it.) It came back with...

There are a couple posts here about making your own from plastic tubing, which I have done before. That would be something to consider, unless you...

Definitely would be possible, might have to design it yourself though. I've taken mine off of my Sovereign though, the small amount of lap spillage...

I use the mead light springs in my Dolce and they work really well.

I wonder if the older models can be retrofitted with the new design elements.
