Vienna Instruments: Brass 2 Piccolo trumpet - Bass trumpet - Triple horn - Horn ensemble (8 players Epic Horns) - Bass trombone - Contrabass trombone - Contrabass tuba - Wagner tuba - Cimbasso Vienna Instruments: Brass 2 contains the instruments for large-scale orchestral arrangements, i.e., the “Wagner orchestral brass”. Oriented toward Wagner’s “Ring”, there are the bass trumpet, the contrabass trombone, Wagner tuba and contrabass tuba, all with the standard single note and Performance articulations like Interval Performances, Repetitions, Performance Trills, etc. As an alternative to the Viennese horn, Vienna Instruments: Brass 2 also contains a new solo horn, the triple horn, Yamaha’s master instrument in F/Bb/high F, recorded down to the lowest register (A1). Further, there are the piccolo trumpet, the Pro Edition’s cimbasso, and of course the famous “Epic Horns” from the Horizon Series, an impressive sounding body of eight double horns that not only fulfills the sonic ideal of the theatrical late Romantic orchestra but also meets the challenge of “larger than life” scores for modern cinema.
