In today's fast- paced society of global communication and the internet it is no wonder that in the world of music both conductors and composers are DEMANDING horn players to play FASTER-LOUDER-LIGHTER. With so many makers of Horns on the market it is imperative that the Horn give you IMMEDIATE GRATIFICATION! This means FASTER articulation to allow the player to move quickly in all 3 registers.
For the professional and avid amateur this also means a Horn that is physically LIGHTER and is a joy to hold. Ever so true when holding up the Horn to play. This also means a LOUDER more powerful Horn rich in overtones that can project to the back of the deadest of concert halls without exhausting yourself. Truly a Horn must play great in ALL 3 REGISTERS. The high, middle and low registers must have quick attacks with crisp staccatos and the smoothest of legatos.
Let us not forget that one time the Horn was a forest instrument and should have the NOBLEST and most beautiful of all sounds
