I agree... playing horn isn't particulary easy, I quite recognise and understand the author's struggle with this brass instrument. Yet it's also very rewarding, and yes, the horn has to find you in a way.
Very pleasant and readable account of an unexpected adventure. If you love to play horn, got to love this book...
