"This Ricco Kuehn W393 triple horn ... is the best horn I have ever played! The resonance and consistency throughout the entire range is remarkable. The horn behaves very honestly - I can trust the notes to be and feel right where I expect them. The intonation is excellent. The sound is incredible. The horn plays almost effortlessly and truly enhances my playing in all dynamics, articulations, and range! ...  Thank you so much for a very special, extraordinary instrument, Ricco! "

More and more, professionals, amateurs, and students are discovering Ricco Kühn horns. 

The list keeps growing!  We have sold Ricco Kühn horns to professionals in several of the top symphony orchestras in the U.S.. They are discovering that the sound they are looking for comes from the unique blend of old world craftsmanship and new technology that characterize Ricco's instruments.  The hand hammered one-piece bell gives a quality unlike other bells.  And the intonation and response are all carefully measured by today's technology.  Superbly crafted, and may be custom ordered.

Models

  • NEW!! - Model W393X - Full triple horn in F/Bb/F alto with slides to convert from F alto to Eb alto.  This horn retains all the features of Ricco's W393 full triple horn, but has been slightly re-wrapped to allow insertion of an included set of Eb alto slides.  For a modest increase in price you can improve the utility of your triple horn, giving you great flexibility in your choice of fingerings and sound quality in the alto range. 
  • W 293-ML - Knopf wrap full double horn.  This is our best selling Ricco Kühn horn.  Agile and responsive, beautifully in tune, this is a horn that is in a class by itself.  This is a versatile, lyrical instrument equally at home in any setting.
  • W 293-L - Knopf wrap full double horn with "Vienna-style" throated bell.  Ricco took his traditional Knopf model, modified the bell throat and matched a new mouthpipe to produce a K-model horn with all the dark carrying power you would expect of a symphonic horn.
  • W 283 -  Knopf wrap, built with a light weight bell and light bracing.  Quicker taper mouthpipe gives a free-blowing feel while retaining response and intonation.
