The tubing of the Viennese horn is 55% conical and narrower than the most commonly used double horn in F/Bb. The so-called F crook is not a fixed part of the Viennese horn but is detachable. Other tunings are used especially for natural horn parts. The three valves are Viennese valves (twin-piston valves) and are operated by the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fingers of the left hand. In contrast to the Vienna horn the double horn in F/Bb has rotary valves with an optional additional stopping valve. The higher pitch that results from stopping on the Viennese horn is not compensated for by a stopping valve but by playing the note a half tone lower.
The bass trombone is a slide trombone with two valves that are operated by the left thumb. The valves make it possible to lower the instrument’s pitch from Bb to F or D. The entire chromatic scale only becomes available thanks to the thumb valve (F tuning) and an additional third-valve (D tuning). The bass trombone has a very wide range and is relatively easy to play in the lower register.
The classical Swing big-band ensemble includes 5 saxophones: 2 Alto, 2 Tenor and 1 Baritone saxophone. The transposing Tenor saxophone in Bb covers the middle range. Its sound can be very raw and “dirty”. Stan Getz is one of a large number of well-known players of this instrument.

Having received high acclaim for the Solo Woodwinds, the Vienna Symphonic Library team felt compelled to create the Woodwind Ensembles, implementing the same exhaustive use of our Performance Elements. Their pristine sound, as well as the artistic performances, will live up to the high standards professional composers have come to expect from Vienna’s libraries. The Vienna Symphonic Library Woodwinds are distinguished by their exceptional flexibility,and they lend themselves well to instrumentations for both two and three musicians. As an innovation in this edition we are proud to present cluster sounds. Additionally, you can achieve dense, broad and varied woodwind sounds when combined with the Solo Woodwinds of the First and Pro Editions, or our Horizon Series’ Opus 1. Furthermore, the Woodwind Ensembles offer the ideal solution to create the perfect balance between strings, brass and woodwinds in large orchestras.
