Rhein Horn in Eb
This is a shoulder carried
valveless horn / bugle in the key of Eb. I call it a Rhein Horn
because I have seen bands of these kinds of horns (usually on bicycles)
in towns along the Rhein River in Germany. They are made in several
sizes - this one plays like a baritone or trombone with an 8"
bell. The progression of notes available are: Eb-G-Bb-Eb.
There is a mechanism on the leadpipe for substancial flexibility in
positioning the mouthpiece. It is played in ensemble with various
other sized valveless horns - creating lovely Tyrolean -style
music.
