Richard Korn is on a distinguished road
Default Hello from Iceland

Just joined the forum after spending a whole night reading many of the threads.
I'm originally from Connecticut but have been in the Iceland symphony from the late 70's with a few years in Vienna and Luxembourg. I also play in the chamber ensemble,a program pop band and anything else that comes along.
My main symphony bass is a 5 string Oskar Kappemeyer which is a copy of a Sebastian Dallinger ca.1780 in the Vienna Philharmonic. I also have an Abraham Prescott 1826 of the original cello shape...bait of a bear as you get up into thumb position but sounds like a church organ. Also an1808 5/8 size Viennese bass labelled Geissenhof? with its original neck and scroll.
Most interested in Prescott history especially the early ones.

Best regards, Richard
