No one has commented on the thing that stuck out the most to me, as it definitely was NOT the playing.
Look at the children. Talk about a difference in eras. Go to a children's orchestra concert now and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks, but a little late. That's the same picture linked to on page 1 of this thread. It's Mr. Novotny in the video.TubaTodd wrote:Want a picture? Here you go...

To the list of players playing the .687 bore rotary valve King CC, add Jay McAllister, Phil Cadway and Bill Barber. Those instruments are really amazing.
Lou Pirko (National Symphony) was the prior owner of Joe Novotny's King. Phil Cadway's was one that Mr. Bell owned before the one he played in the NY Phil.

That is, indeed, Mr. Bell. His tenure with the NYPO ended in 1961 with Mr. Novotny starting with the group in the fall of 1961.hrender wrote:There's a 1958 concert showing Mr. Bell (I think)
