An amazing top professional level piccolo horn made by Syhre in Germany. This Bb soprano, F alto compensating double piccolo horn (also known as a Corno da Caccia) was custom made for the Gewandhaus Orchestra and never offered to the public. It’s in amazing condition and built for the high tessitura baroque and classical repertoire, although it can be used for jazz and other kinds of music.
A new version of the single Bb soprano version can be found here:

Dr. James Hampson performed numerous concerts and recitals on this instrument. Here’s a quick recording he made a few years ago playing the opening to the Neruda Horn Concerto:
