Interesting John, would it mean that it is possible to make a step-horn, similar to the profile of Central and South American pyramids? I never head a step-horn horn but it should work.
I suspect that it would not do well German, Slav or French composers but on Heitor Villa-Lobos, Alberto Ginastera or Astor Pizzolla this horn should do. :-). I’m sure it would be much more complicated to implement a properly tratrix-opening step horn then a smooth horn...
