Historical horn mouthpieces
We offer a small, fine selection of horn mouthpieces for baroque and invention horns. Most of the mouthpieces are direct copies of originals of the respective era and have been specifically found and copied in various museums.
The mouthpieces can be supplied with either a baroque or modern shank. The narrower baroque shaft can be played on modern receivers using an adapter. The surface finish is available in brass, silver-plated or gold-plated.
The mouthpieces are manufactured using state-of-the-art CNC lathes to achieve maximum precision in the reproduction of the historical originals.
