These instruments are today's version of a Corno Da Caccia. The Corno of the baroque era did not

have valves. This instrument could be referred to as a piccolo horn.
We play a variety of instruments. We play unvented trumpets, vented trumpets, and modern instruments as well.
Putting vent holes, or finger holes in trumpets was not experimented with until well after 1750. The vented trumpets
below are all 20th century designs. Holes were added to help the horn play better in tune. To the believer in true
authenticity, this is not acceptable. We try and please the many different people in the audience. That is why we play
with and without vent holes. We believe there is enough room for all music lovers in this world.
