Mitsching

Post by k001k47 »

This thread is about Mitsching tubas: discuss Mitsching tubas here. :?

I just saw the horn in the Dillon website used section.
I've never heard of the brand, so I'm a little interested in learning more about this old, huge looking horn.

Anyone care to chime in?

Mitsching was in Elberfeld, which was an independent town until 1929. Now it is part of Wuppertal in the Ruhr district. Kuhn succeeded Mitsching, but later joined the trombone maker Lätzsch in Bremen around 1955.

I have a Mitsching Eb alto flugelhorn. Not one I play much.
