Max was a machinist for 38 years. He worked in metal and has a deep appreciation for the craftmanship that goes into the making of metal instruments...particularly brass orchestra and band instruments. He appreciates the technology of making horns and appreciates the music they make when played. |
Recently Max had the opportunity to enjoy touching, holding, and playing a number of rare brass instruments. Some made as long ago as the 19th century, all of these horns were manufactured in the distant past using the highest calibar of metal craftsmanship. And, oh, the sounds these horns can produce! |
