Tony, are you sure you've got your model numbers right? The rotary-valved 641 for a younger player might cause him or her to move to oboe. It's a big-bore 4/4 that requires a fair amount of air to play well. I volunteer to teach the low brass in a middle school class that has Yammie 103 and 105's. These seem to fit the players perfectly. The 621 is a nice small horn, but what a premium for something that's essentially built on a 103 body!
