what does "independent" valves mean? My only reference is on a triple horn model, one cannot engage the high F valve without also engaging the Bb valve. Is this "not" independent? Is there a difference in the way they play? More alternate "fingerings" available? (altho as a string player, I think I would adapt to the slide concept very easily.)
