Conventional wisdom is that he started on Raoux-Milleraux (an authentic
French horn, as it were, made in France) & then switched to a single horn
in B-flat made by Gebr. Alexander. A photo of him wearing white tie &
actually playing an Alexander Bb horn is the cover illustration on some of
the Dennis Brain albums.

Does anyone know what kind of horn or horns Dennis Brain played? Where are
they? Who has them? Who made them? One of my students is curious and now so
am I!
