Amazing Craftsmanship! Ancient Alphorns With Old Hand Tools

These instruments are made from one piece of maple wood and enveloped with cherry bark! Embark on a #woodworking journey into ancient Alphorn making with Enache Manole, a master craftsman from a long line of Alphorn makers. For centuries, the Alphorn has been used to communicate with the herdsmen and the people down the valleys below, its call slicing miles away through the Carpathian mountains. Learn the secrets of making the wood sound in an idyllic mountain landscape. This legendary place has a special charm that carries you away with the rhythm of the traditional alpenhorn, known as bucium, which can still be heard today. Few specialized woodworking craftsmen know how to turn ash wood into these interesting long instruments, carefully cutting, shaping, and beautifully wrapping them into cherry bark, with old techniques passed down through generations.
