 
Hoyer horns are produced in the town of Markneukirchen, in the Vogtland region
of eastern Germany. This area is part of historic Saxony, which is famous for
developing and fostering the rich heritage of the horn.
 The craftsmen in the
Hoyer factory draw on 250 years of brass instrument making tradition, while
pursuing their art in an eco-friendly,
State-of-the-art facility.
The Hoyer team has reproduced the world's most successful horn designs while
applying input from artists and musicians, but has re-engineered and improved
their acoustical properties to provide optimum performance.
Heritage Model 7801/7802
 The “Heritage” model horns pay tribute to the warm, dark German sound
popularized by
Anton Horner of the Philadelphia Orchestra in the early
1900s. As symphony orchestras matured over the past century, this sound
became the American ideal.

and factory “pre-aged” to emulate the legendary Kruspe Horner model and
the vintage Elkhart Conn 8Ds.

Kruspe Model 5801PMAL
 Kruspe Model 5801PMAL
F/Bb double horn
Bore = 11,9mm (0.468'')
Bell diameter = 310mm (12.205'')
Medium throated bell
Yellow brass construction
Mechanical levers
This Kruspe model horn “bridges the gap” between the richness of the
Heritage horns and the clarity of the Geyer style. The yellow brass bell
provides warmth at low dynamics, and the power to project at “ff ”. The PMAL is an excellent choice for the Conn 28D enthusiast. The excellent
projection of this model is largely due to the acoustical efficiency
generated by the medium bell throat.
Price as shown: $4,384.00,

*Also available in gold brass
Hoyer 5801CK and 5802CK
 The success of the new Hoyer products is owed to Gerhard Meinl –
president of JA Musik, and design engineer Ferdinand Kleinschmidt. Herr
Kleinschmidt is responsible for the acoustical design of each brasswind
model produced in the Markneukirchen factory. Using computer-assisted
analysis, he has managed to balance nobility of sound with excellent
response, intonation and evenness throughout the range.

Medium bell, gold brass mouthpipe
Adjustable fingerhook and thumb lever
Model 5801CK = mechanical levers

This classic Geyer model horn enables the soloist to sing, while

favorite in many American orchestras, this design is extremely
acoustically efficient. The medium bell throat lends a charming presence
to the darkest sound.

 Prof. Carlos Crespo provided the design input on this model, which has
the most “European” feel of the Hoyer horns. The Knopf model was developed
in Germany at the same time that Carl Geyer introduced his design in
America. The (4th) change valve location provides excellent facility,
while the large bell throat lends richness to the sound.
