Question - when you say bell pointed at the audience, how directly can you do so? I'd assume you don't mean dead on straight at them, or you'd have to be sitting almost woth your back to them to do so.

I'm trying in my (tired old) mind to reconcile the ideas of having eye contact with the audience and having the bell aimed at them. It seems easier to pull off for the other interuments, but the horn would (I think) have to be pointing at most at about a 45 degree angle if the horn player sat at the left (from audience perspective)
