Denis WickDW3183 Heritage Series Tenor and Alto Horn Mouthpiece in Gold 5
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For tenor or alto horn, the gold Heritage Series 5 is the range’s deepest and narrowest option. It combines a 17.50mm cup, 6.35mm rim, 5.20mm throat, and Open-V backbore. The model is described as flexible and rich-toned, with a resonant, full upper register. Heritage construction places greater mass near the throat and backbore while keeping the walls toward the rim thinner, supporting response at softer dynamics and articulation higher up.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Tenor or alto horn playing that values flexible response and a resonant, full upper register.
- Players specifically seeking the deepest and narrowest mouthpiece within this Heritage range.
