Triple Horn

As an alternative to the Viennese horn, this is a very different solo horn: The Triple Horn, Yamaha's master instrument in F/Bb/high F, has been recorded down to the lowest register (A1).

In the world of music the Viennese horn is known for its particularly colorful tone. In modern orchestral practice, however, it is a rarity – only very few European orchestras still use it (e.g. the Vienna Philharmonic). It is regarded as a very difficult instrument to play, but the sound contains a greater number of harmonics and therefore has a brighter sound when compared directly to the double horn. As an alternative, the Vienna Symphonic Library also offers the triple horn.
