alforn 39
Horn of the Alps, alpine horn, alpenhorn, alphorn. Very long musical instrument, made of spruce wood and very penetrating sound, used by the Alpine inhabitants also for long-distance communication in a similar way as they do in the Carpathians, in the Andes among the Mapuches or in the Pyrenees with other instruments. Ranchers used it to call cows for milking. They said this sound reassured them. From my time as a student near Bern I remember that this sound invited recollection and tranquility.
