I'm sure a lot of us would love to have one. Fifty does seem like overkill, though.Well I'd love to have one - they are a bit rusty but some have had little use.
I sold mine some years back when I realised I wasn't all that good at blacksmithing. Regretted it ever since.
I've provided a '2½lb Lump Hammer' on 2 or 3 occasions when the University of Warwick Chorus has sung the Anvil Chorus. The Percussion section had sourced an Anvil but only had a 6oz Ball Pein Hammer!Of passing interest. Verdi il trovatore and Wagner Das Rheingold both use anvils in a chorus. I think 4 for the Wagner, but 50 would sound magnificent. Some orchestras cheat and use various tubes to get the sound, but some still use real anvils played with hammers.
Loved Lynsey, though. She was a 'super woman'!!I've provided a '2½lb Lump Hammer' on 2 or 3 occasions when the University of Warwick Chorus has sung the Anvil Chorus. The Percussion section had sourced an Anvil but only had a 6oz Ball Pein Hammer!
Never done Das Rheingold - can't abide Wagner!
