Oh dear, this man is funny!! And boy: CAN HE PLAY!! I attended a performance of Mahler's Third in Amsterdam conducted by Maestro Jansons. It was in 2010, and I believe Frits Damrow played the posthorn. It was beautiful!
Trumpet vs Posthorn? I bet you would sound awsome too even you blow on a watering can! I appreciate very much this kind of pedagogical videos. Ammirazione e congratulazioni!
Coiled trumpets were common in the Baroque period, and although the original instrument was called a post horn, it is more related to a trumpet due to its cylindrical bore. The instrument played in the video is a modern version of a post horn with added valves. For it to be a (French) horn it would need to have a conical bore.
What a fun and informative viewpoint into the unique contribution offstage playing adds to the aura and experience of music.

This instrument is basically a Circular Flugelhorn & it takes a Flugelhorn Mouthpiece.
So what instrument is this exactly? A small french horn pitched like a trumpet?
