Why do brass band players insist on playing top D with the 1st valve (3rd position for trombones), when it's perfectly in tune when played open (1st position for trombones). It'd also be easier since you can use a lower harmonic [ the same is true for C# ]. I have even seen this in print - Wright and Round's Complete Method states to use 1st valve on top D. Why? It isn't needed and you're just making life more tricky than it need be. -Nigel -- Nigel Horne. Arranger, Adjudicator, Band Trainer, Composer, Tutor, Typesetter. NJH Music, Barnsley, UK.
