Develop both types of sound. For an example of what I'm talking about, get the "Portrait of an Artist" cd. Notice how Jacobs' sound changes drastically from the 3 solo excerpts to the ensemble recordings, especially the brass group at the start of the cd.

I confess I've never heard Roger Bobo in an orchestra, although I understand he was successful in that direction as well. However, his solo sound doesn't strike me as one that would contribute to an ensemble, and so I am assuming he changed his sound too.

Different mouthpieces, even horns, and of course even more practice can all make that work. But why not have YOUR sound, as well as some other sounds? Versatility would seem to be a bonus in this case.

My humble $.02
