<<subject: Re: [Hornlist] Oddball eBay Horn <Neat horn. It looks similar to the one Dennis Brain is pictured with on one <of the Mozart Horn Concerto CDs he did.
-William<<<<<< Hi, This is a French compensating double horn. With the trigger "up" the air goes through the Bb side, with the trigger down it STILL goes through the Bb side but then some extra tube is added to put it in F. I think Brain used single horns. Anyway, I had something like this for a few months. With the "American" mouthpiece (Holton MC) it played pretty normal, when I switched to the original mouthpiece the horn REALLY brightened up and sounded more like a hunting horn... very French! If your looking for a quick, bright instrument this might be just the thing. Oh, the placement of the valves makes it almost imposable to hold : ) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewItem&item=3739132425 LB _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
