Mr. Osmun, and everybody - I know of no other recording where at first hearing you think How in the h--- does he get up that high on only a double? because you are convinced by the tone quality that it can only be a normal horn, than Barry Tuckwell's recording Baroque Horn Concertos on

Same as color material of a nice cloth, which are two different things. Timbre (sound color) sonority (sound uality) are two very different things also. Listen to my Long Calls on my www.pizka.de/sigfrid.htm site to the other recordings, - and understand, what I like to describe.
