| Re: NATURAL TRUMPET PLAYING The Naumann has a sound very suitable for the "modern" ear. Smooth, even through all of the registers. Sometimes you can even forget that it is a nat (especially when Niklas Eklund plays it!)!
The Münkwitz has a wider range of possibilities, from really nasty to brilliant-heroic. It has distinct sounds in the various registers. This is probably historically more accurate, but not always what non-period ears expect. I use it very often even for things like Mozarts Requiem. It is easier to imitate heaven AND hell with this horn.
