Just to add my two cents. The G is usually flat so that the middle Bb can be played in tune. A solution is to play the Middle Bb with the 5th (of a 6 valve) F horn, allowing the first slide to stay in. Then the mid A will be sharp, so it can then be played with the 4th valve. The lower BBb should be played with the 4th and 5th valves, the BB with the 6th and 4th valves. The only remaining problem will be the management of the 2nd valve. A trigger is probably the best solution. H. Critchley
