What is the proper way to execute the Doppler effect ( also known as the HosaTwirl(tm) ) on the Hosaphone(tm)?
The Hosaphone(tm) is the only musical instrument capable of producing this moving and dramatic effect. To execute the Doppler effect, the Hosaphone(tm) must be untaped and the bell end swung in a circle over the hoser’s head while playing a sustained note. This effect must be used judiciously with taste and proper musical sensitivity and not cheap exhibitionism. A perfect example of a work composed for the beloved Hosaphone(tm) that makes proper use of this feature is Codetta in C for Hosaphone(tm), Piano and Bass ( http://hosaphone.com/codetta) comp(h)osed by Mr. Roth. There is also available an arrangement of Codetta in C for Solo Hosaphone(tm) and Brass Quartet, playable by any brass quintet’s trumpet or horn player.
