Of course, it would be a self-limiting experience -- the louder you play, the faster it melts ... at least you wouldn't need a "water key" :oops:

A sample from Terje Isungset's website. He's a percussionist and his fellow "ice trumpeter" is Arve Henriksen, what "[...] at times used a glass fiber mouth piece, althought most of the time he'd blow with his lips directly onto the ice trumpet."
I hope he usually use Chop Saver!!! What an outlandishness! :shock:
