I have an A. Braun Tenor Horn and I am working hard to find more information surrounding the instrument, including year it was made, where it was made, and what it might be worth. I have tracked it down to the Braun family who lived and worked making jewelry and instruments in Timisoara, Romania (Austro-Hungarian city of Temesvár / Temeschburg.) It appears to have been made before or between 1958-1978 (when Anton Michael Braun took over the shop and specifically made saxhorns.) If anyone has any more info about the instrument itself or the factory it was made in (I know they do custom flutes now, I mean anything from the time this horn was made) or can offer some locations to get more info I would be grateful!

Thank you!
