Hi from England,
I read in my latest copy of Windplayer magazine about instruments being
frozen to de-stress the metal and which makes a beautiful sound.
Has anyone experienced this ? they list Floyd Cooley amongst their customers.
Second, Bob Reeves web site shows fascinating details of valve alignment,
again to improve the entire instrument sound & range.
They list Canadian Brass amongst a host of other top line players.
If anyone has experience of the above and knows of any UK services offering
these, I would be most grateful.
Best wishes, Charley.
