ALEXANDER model 90MAFVL waltornia pojedyncza in B

ALEXANDER waltornia pojedyncza in B model 90MAFVL, yellow brass, detachable bell, flipper, adjustable 5th finger hook, lacquered, no case included

The single Bb horn offers the same advantage of lightness as the single F horn. Single Bb horns are highly appreciated by “high” hornists because they can make challenges in opera or concert much easier. Typically, single Bb horns are used in chamber music and solo performances.

The sound of Bb horns is lean and supple. The notes in the low register below low Bb can be successfully played with a fourth extension replacing the stopping extension, or better yet – as with Model 97 – with a separate extra fourth extension.

Model 90 can be ordered with an extra set of 3 valve slides and one main slide to convert the instrument into an F horn.
