Description
This is a Hans Hoyer, German-made Bb/f alto horn. According to the official Hoyer website this horn was inspired by Hans Hoyer artist Richard Todd – this inspiration came from the Hollywood sound of his teacher, Vincent DeRosa. Those with an interest in horn design will see that this is the same as Paxman model 40 developed by Merewether/Paxman – known more commonly as the pre-1985 wrap.
Built in yellow brass, this horn benefits from having two flares: the original yellow brass one and a gold brass one for a mellower tone. The horn is in fabulous condition, only being a few years old and very well looked after by the current owner. Definitely one to consider by anyone wanting a add or upgrade and in the market for a Bb/f alto.
This horn comes with the original Hans Hoyer screw bell backpack case.
