Dr. Patrick Bennett –
I sat down and played the Amanti in silver-plate yesterday, and I was extremely pleased and amazed how lively this horn is, especially in the upper register. You generally don’t have an easy high range on a horn with a .472 bell throat, but this horn has power and flexibility that I have not seen in any large horn, especially one that is custom built. This is an awesome instrument!
