In the 1960’s there was a revival of Historically Informed Performance, playing the works of Bach, Mozart, etc. on the instruments and styles of the time. This is one of those early revival instruments, a Reiche trumpet (jagdtrumpet), or coiled natural trumpet, based on the instrument that Bach’s trumpeter was holding in a famous painting. Made by F.C. Louis in Germany.
We had world-renowned natural horn and trumpet builder Richard Seraphinoff build a full crook set for it, playable from F at A=415 down to Bb at A=415 or even lower. With all of the crooks, couplers, and bits this can play at any pitch level (A=440, 430, 415, etc) in these keys. There is also a tirarsi attachment, a trombone type slide, to play the chromatic baroque works for tromba/corno da tirarsi. Takes a baroque trumpet shank size mouthpiece, and we also had Seraphinoff make an adapter for a modern horn mouthpiece shank for French horn players to be able to use this instrument. Has 3 vent holes for use in D at A=440 but works for other keys as well.
This instrument is part of Dr. James Hampson’s personal collection.
