Tony, let's have the story behind this horn.

The player obviously is your wife. It doesn't look like she just plays one of your instruments, as the leadpipe looks like tapered for her horn mouthpiece.

Tony, When are you coming to Switzerland for Bass Horn duets?
I know a few places (In the Alps) where we can play.
