I forgot something: the best thing to find out if an instrument suits you is to try it out. So if only possible, your doughter should try out the instruments. There can be huge differences between two instruments of the same type. Tell her to take her mouthpiece to the dealer and play for a couple of minutes on each instrument.

I have watched Scorsese's "Shine a Light" tonight. Good movie, but above all excellent sound, even if you are not that much of a Stones fan.

Hi Peter! First of all, Yamaha is not a bad choice for a student's trumpet. I never owned one, but I know them. The YTR-4335 is a standart student's trumpet and you sure are doing nothing wrong with that choice. The YTR-8310Z seems to be a newer model, I have never heard of that one. I read that it is a lightweight trumpet, which sure is good

Sorry Fredrik, but I think this looks awful! I am sure that it sounds very good, but I really don't like the BV7-BL10 combination.

Holger: Es betrübt mich sehr !!!! Ich kann diese Aussage sehr gut verstehen. Bin selber erst seit 3 Jahren im B&O Boot, doch ich habe auch gemerkt, dass diese Marke nicht immer auf dem letzten Stand ist. Trotzdem bleibe ich ihr treu, da ich sicher bin, dass sie aus ihren Fehlern lernen. Ich habe mich viel mit der Geschichte von B&O beschäftigt

Medogsfat: Tom: I think Lewis Hamilton deserved that title. I agree, especially considering the way the FIA have treated him & McClaren with the number of points they have robbed him/them of. Chris. that's my point. it would not have been right if Massa had got the title.

9 LEE: Tom: I think it was top 5 before. I found it better that way. Not sure why it went to 20 then 30 - but Tom, it's back as you wish! Lee But you needn't change it because of me. I just think the page looks better without that long list...

jldmelb: Are the smurfs coming to attack you? Sorry, but what is a smurf?

I think that was the best race I have ever seen. Though I support Ferrari, I think Lewis Hamilton deserved that title.

Wirklich schade, Hannes. Bist du denn sicher, dass du sämtliche B&O Geräte los werden musst? Du könntest doch auch deine Avants austauschen und den Rest mit anderen Fernsehern fremder Hersteller verbinden. Oder gibt es noch einen anderen Grund für deinen Komplettausstieg?
