Denis Wick Classic Silver-Plated Alto/Tenor Horn Mouthpiece - DW5883
Denis Wick Classic Silver-Plated Alto/Tenor Horn Mouthpiece - DW5883
SKU:MDWAH5883 1
The Tenor Horn (more correctly known as the alto horn) is the smallest member of the tuba/saxhorn family. It was long regarded as the Cinderella of the brass band where, with traditional mouthpieces, it was always inferior in volume and presence to the other more powerful band instruments. The carefully designed Denis Wick tenor horn mouthpieces give the instrument equality to its colleagues so that it can easily contribute its own special tone colour that is so characteristic of the brass band. All Denis Wick tenor (alto) horn mouthpieces use deep funnel cups for maximum quality of tone and flexibility with matched throats and backbores for perfect intonation.
