The Point of No Return

So, after feeling insecure about my performance at French Horn Nation, I decided to give the H179 one more shot.

Five minutes later, I realized I'd passed the point of no return with the H200.

The Bb fingerings are still kicking my ass, but it IS getting better. But I'm settling in to the general operation and playing of the horn itself. Granted, I'm still having trouble finding notes I should be able to just ping out of nowhere, but again, it's getting there.

At FHN there was one other horn player with a Double Descant. It's almost like a secret we share -- here's a horn that sounds (almost) like any other horn, but it's easier to play and has better range. Shhh! Don't tell!
