I love this instrument!

BThomas 29.12.2023

This lovely horn was delivered to me just a few days ago, here in California, and I absolutely love it. It is built with precision- the seams are very tight, almost invisible when the horn is assembled. In fact, I’d say that it looks more expensive than it actually is- smooth, clean and gorgeous. The sound, for me at least, it surprisingly brassy given that it is made of wood, especially in the upper register. In the lower it mellows out to deliver more of a French Horn sound. I am a euphonium player, but thus far I have found it relatively easy to make the switch. The mouthpiece is smaller than a euphonium’s but still accessible for me. Building a firm emboucher is necessary, but playing this horn is such a joy that practice is a pleasure. I strongly recommend this instrument to anyone who, like me, has always dreamed of playing an alphorn. Thank you, Thomann!

Ein wirklich tolles Instrument

Anonymous 10.08.2016

Ich war gespannt was mich erwartet ...
Die Verarbeitung ist wirklich sehr gut - die Nähte sind quasi nicht zu sehen und auch die Buchsen sind wirklich gut verarbeitet, sind stabil und gehen doch leicht.
Ein erster Test hat das äußerlich tolle Aussehen auch klanglich bestätigt. Es klingt mit dem mitgelieferten Mundstück etwas heller als andere Alphörner, ist aber klanglich wirklich schön. Mit meinen 22er Mundstück klingt das Horn gleich etwas satter.
Die Intonation ist sehr gut - auch in den oberen Tönen und die Ansprache ist auch für einen noch nicht soo geübten Spieler sehr angenehm.
Ich habe hier ein tolles Instrument gefunden, das in seiner Schlichtheit überzeugt und mit dem ich sicherlich viel Freude haben werden.
