The Anotine Courtois 154R Redux: Ted Furman AKA Spacebrewer On The Electric Fluglehorn

August 21, 2007
Ted Furman talks about his unique main instrument, the electric fluglehorn.

Ted Furman, who records and performs under the name of Spacebrewer, has long since given up the trumpet in lieu of the much mellower Anotine Courtois 154R fluglehorn. Gearwire's Gretchen Hasse met with him in his studio, where Ted talked about how he's transformed the fluglehorn to a full-fledged electric instrument.

Furman drilled a piezo pickup into his mouthpiece and crafted a mute designed with an internal microphone. He runs these through a variety of effects and gives us a demonstration of the fluglehorn like you've never heard it before.

Presenter: Gretchen Hasse, Gearwire
