I went looking on the web curious to see which horn manufacturers currently
make the classic Viennese style pumpenhorns. Strangely enough the furthest
search yielded only Alexander (model 92) so far out of current manufacturers.
Surely though there must be other places/people that make them.

Hi William,
There are good Vienna horns available but you have
to look for them. I would not rule out a GOOD used
horn just as I would not rule out a GOOD old 8D.
IMHO, it must be very hard to make a good Vienna horn
because I have played very few that I would plunk down
the money for. I ha

This has been discussed some time ago. "plein son" means "full sound", which

a valid interpretation to play some of these traditional call quotations
without the valves, in my opinion.

Ron Pinc was a HIGHLY respected repairperson in Chicago when I
attended Northwestern University. I do not have first hand knowledge
of his own horns.

Ron started as a trumpet repairman at Schilke and later work for several
years with Steve Lewis. Most recently he has been rebuilding trumpets with
Scott Laskey. He's a nice guy and a very talented fellow.

I believe the passage was intended to played on the natural harmonics;
however, most people play the passage on valves. Barry Tuckwell encouraged
me to play it on the natural horn when I played the piece for him in the mid
1980s.
