My horn has become established within a very short time in the professional wind players communty.
Internationally leading french horn soloists already are playing this instrument, e.g.: Nury Guarnaschelli - until 2008 french horn soloist at the Austrian Broadcasting Orchestra Vienna, since 2009 freelance french horn soloist Thomas Krummstroh – French horn soloist at he Berliner Staatskapelle (Berlin State Opera Orchestra) Berthold Cremer – Municipal Theatre Gießen
Also digeridoo players use the Franzenhorn as a didgeridoo, e.g. the famous didgeridoo player Andy Rüschnerand Chief Executive of Deutsche Bahn Rüdiger Grube blows the Franzenhorn.
The „Franzenhorn“ very easy to blow, excellent intonation and easy attack, tight bore with well balanced blowing resistance, easy, light andagile to blow Every new “Franzenhorn” is thoroughly tested by myself.
