Hello Paul.

If you are at the Tuscaloosa symposium, let others try your
horn eventually. If some people are interested to get a
similar horn, I have three of them ready now. Price still at
EUR 5.850.- all included (horn, silver  gold plating, case,
shipping, insurance). Remind them of the better exchange
rate now which is about 10% better than three months ago.
Still 1,23 US $ for one EUR. These three horns ready for
shipment are all excellent  tested during Tannhaeuser 
Bruckner no.7  Heldenleben (I played it 8-times this year,
two performances still to come).

Kindest regards  best wishes

Hans

I can attest to the quality of the instruments being offered. I bought
exactly 11 months ago, and have been nothing but impressed with the
instrument. If you appreciate the sound of a smaller, lighter instrument
(but can open up when needed!) this is just the instrument for you.

As Siskel and Roper would say - Two thumbs up!

[Hornlist] Pizka Classic Double Horn

2004-05-22 Thread Paul Rincon
Hello fellow Horners!

My name is Paul Rincon, I am a soon to be Senior at Lake Brantley High school. I've 
been studying horn with my teacher Mr. William C. Robinson for about 5 1/2 years now 
(some of you on the list might know/studied with him). Anyways!
As an early graduation Present, my parents decided to buy me a new french horn, as my 
old one (a 22 year old yamaha with a Lawson leadpipe)  was in a not very good 
condition, and it was certainly not my style of horn. 
So of course, I began to look at all of the usual suspects, Elkhart Conn's, The new 
Yamahas, Alex, Schmid, Paxman, Finke, etcetera. However, one caught my eye, it was the 
Pizka Classic double horn ( http://pizka.de/PizClasHr.htm ) I then proceeded to 
contact professor Pizka himself, and over a period of 3-4 weeks and bouncing emails 
back and forth, It was decided that I would receive a Pizka Classic double with the 
Gold brass leadpipe. 

I received it 4 days ago...let me just say; that it is the most incredible instrument 
I have ever played (Including my teacher's 1942 Geyer) The response is extremely fast, 
the tone shiny, and the most beautiful decorations I have ever seen on an instrument. 
It is truly a work of art, impossible to overblow (due to the Kranz) and has a very 
carrying Pianissimo. In few words, I love it.

I encourage you to keep his horns in mind if you are of the sort who likes the 
Viennese sound, the smaller instruments, but the finesse and agility of one. I have 
found Prof. Pizka a pleasure to deal with, and he has answered all of my questions and 
concerns promptly.

I highly recommend the Pizka Classic.

Paul R.

Congratulations on your new horn, Paul. I would like a Pizka horn for myself
one day, especially for small ensemble playing. I love the sound of these
horns. In the meantime, I'm really enjoying my Merker Millennium.

If I may ask, are you pursuing a solo career, or are you going to be playing
in a large ensemble? Please let us know how the Pizka blends in with other
horns.

-Carl

[Hornlist] Pizka Classic Horn

2003-09-06 Thread giovanniarcangeli
Hoss,

   The Pizka horn is right up there with Schmid, Lawson, Haagston,
Finke, Otto and Duerk in terms of quality, playability and sheer joy one gets when 
playing these horns. If you acquire a Pizka, you will never regret it. It compels you 
to reach for even greater musicianship. 

Giovanni
