As one of the two principals of the Royal Opera House Orchestra I play Eaton large bores, there are two players in the section who play second, one on R13 prestiges and one on Yamahas. I think we blend fine, there’s simply no problem, it’s more about the sound in your head, we’re aiming for a similar sound but using different equipment to get there. I also have a pair of R13 prestiges which I used at one time, I don’t think I sounded much different on them but play Eatons mainly because I think the intonation is better. Whether we or I sound “English” I wouldn’t like to say, we’re certainly not trying to sound “English” but a player from another country may hear something he or she might like to put a label on.
