Denis Wick Paxman - 2 Silver-Plated (Horn)

Denis Wick: A Reference in Brass Accessories

Behind Denis Wick lies the demand of an orchestral musician: lacking accessories that met his needs, Denis Wick developed his own solutions to optimize resonance and projection in large halls. In a few decades, the brand has become a worldwide reference for brass accessories, recognized for manufacturing quality and consistency, with British artisanal expertise serving instrumentalists.

For Which Horn Player and Usage?

This mouthpiece is primarily aimed at advanced and professional musicians seeking fine control of sound production and reliable response in demanding passages. It is particularly suitable for orchestral playing and solo repertoire, where legato quality, high register stability, and harmonic spectrum richness are decisive. It is a relevant choice if you are looking for a mouthpiece capable of supporting nuanced playing without sacrificing attack and clarity.

Sound and Design

The design, derived from the Heritage model's ideas, combines a thinner inner rim (for a feeling of precision and more direct attack) and an increased weight at the bottom of the cup (for stability and sound density). The result: easier sound production in the high register, more natural legato transitions, and enhanced presence of harmonics throughout the register. The silver-plated finish provides a pleasant contact and consistent feel, useful during long rehearsal or concert sessions.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

Since this product is a horn mouthpiece (V-cup shank), it is generally advised to use a dedicated microfiber cloth and a silver care product to preserve the finish's appearance. Due to compatibility variations depending on instruments and cases, no other accessories are recommended here without certainty about your horn model and setup.
