Description
The tenor horn, also called baritone, was built by Franz Johann Stowasser in Graslitz, Bohemia, today's Czech Republic. The Stowasser family of instrument makers originated in Graslitz (Kraslice/CZ) and branched out in different directions. One family member went to Budapest/Hungary. There is also evidence of the family in Vienna.
A tenor horn played with a cup mouthpiece (a deep cup mouthpiece) and belongs to the “bulges”. The horn mouthpiece is not original to the instrument. It sounds a B≈124 Hz, which corresponds to a concert pitch of a1≈468 Hz.
The instrument has three valves which are stamped "6" each. There is a finely chiseled engraving in the cup.
Dimensions: Length: 79.5cm, bell diameter: 21.5cm.
