 Re: 'old' loree English horn: some questions
Author: doddel

After a few months of playing this instrument, using different reeds, I can now confirm that there are two major intonation issues:

the mid-range D is way too flat and the mid-range G is way too sharp (and too 'open')

I can lower the G a little bit by adding the C-key, but it's not perfect. Haven't found a way to adjust the D yet (except with lip tension, but this is not ideal in a faster string of notes)

any suggestions on what to do? are these things that could be corrected by a good repair person? Or should I take it back to Loree in Paris?
