PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH HORN
Tristan Model 580
Made of select maple and built like one of our world-class bassoons, the Tristan Model 580 English horn has all the depth and resonance for which Fox is known and is 25% lighter in weight than a standard grenadilla English horn. Maple adds a complexity of tone that both blends well in woodwind sections and projects well as a solo instrument.
