Hi all,

I've got this old French made two-valve flugelhorn. Can anyone provide me with any information or background on it? I can't even find the brand listed on Horn-u-copia.

Is there a slide on the second piston? We can't see it in the photo.

Thanks

I have seen one like that in the museum at the Paris Conservoitoire, but it had a big key (like a saxophone pad) near the bell. It was made by Courtois.
