'WELTKLANG' is a traditional retail name, at

 

least 60 years old, used by 'Meister Hans

 

Hoyer' for his factory-made horns; so, in

 

effect, a Weltklang is a Hoyer horn.

 

 This F/Bb compensating horn's build-quality is good, as is its valve compression.

Cosmetically, there are several small, acoustically non-invasive dings and surface blemishes.

 

  In its playing qualities, this attractive, fairly lightweight horn (2.15 kg) has a medium-light ringing tone quality, a velvety low register that speaks very clearly for a compensator, and an impressively even response over the whole range.

 

  The horn's 4th valve is currently set in F/Bb.

 

  The 3 valve levers are fitted with a set of flexible finger-pad extensions to cater for a small hand and /or short fingers.

If these detachable pads are not required, the price can be reduced to £515.

 

 The horn comes with a silver plated mouthpiece in

good condition, ultrasonically cleaned and

disinfected.

The hard case is functional but rather worn.

 

 Generally, a very good,

 

inexpensive compensator that will take a

 

young player up to Grade 8.

 

 

The photos can be viewed in greater detail
