Viennese vs Triple Horn
Hi,
I’m trying to decide between the two solo horns of the collection. Viennese Horn has more articulations, stopped sounds (as in the nature of the instrument), vibrato/non vibrato, more portamento and attack options.
However, the Special Edition included the Triple Horn instead of the Viennese one. Is there a reason to choose the one over the other? By judging from the demos (and the SE Triple Horn I have), I would say the Viennese has a richer, fuller sound, both useful for Romantic age recreation of the natural horn, and for a more epic sound.
Was the Triple Horn chosen only because it it the “standard” sound?
(I noticed that older instruments, in the VSL library, have more articulations, and maybe a thicker sound; has the style evolved during the years? Are some of the older articulation became obsolete with the most recent players?)
