Hi Jay,

How's things? Well, the Dr. Young horn accompanied him to a chamber music workshop I attended summer-before-last at Humboldt State University. It speaks volumes to describe the sound of the horn as interesting. I also talked with Dr. Young about many interesting topics. No, I didn't ask to play the horn, and off-hand I can't think of anyone I know having played it either. We joked about how it would take a boiler-operator's license to safely use the beast! The workmanship on it was pretty nice, I think he said all work was done to his specifications by Herr Gronitz's shop.

Say, a side-note...do you know the fellow selling the Dillon-cut Holton from the Ft. Lauderdale area?
