Denis Wick DW5525 French Horn Stopping Mute

The Denis Wick stopping mute for French Horn is ideal for players with small hands who find hand stopping difficult as well as for any low hand stopping notes. The mute transposes the instrument a perfect semitone the same as when you use your hand. The mute can produce a brassy tone as well as a soft pianissimo when required. For low notes the mute is the perfect tool making notorious hand stopping notes like the low C# in Tchaikovsky 6 a note to be looked forward to rather than feared!

Denis Wick mutes have set the standard for tone and intonation for many years. They bring an amazing range of tone colours to any brass section and are essential for the performance of a huge range of music, from classical composers such as Mahler and Shostakovich to film scores, avant-garde music, big bands and small group jazz.
