Kuhlohorn
The Kuhlohorn (also Kuhlo-Flügelhorn) is a small flugelhorn in B. This is a specially designed brass wind-instrument played using a deep bowled mouth piece. Chief characteristics are its oval design and integrated, usually conical tubing. Kuhlohorns commonly are featuring a conical tuning slide, at the second curved pipe section after the rotary valves. Johannes Kuhlo found the unique sound ideal for a cappella brass choir ( Posaunenchor). He wrote about the Flugelhorn: "They come closest to the human voice after the trombone, because of their soft, full, melodic tone. Since they present fewer difficulties (in playing) than the trombones, these Flugelhorns are the most indispensable for us ... and the more similar an instrument sounds to the human voice, the more perfect it is and to be rated even higher. The flugelhorns (mostly in B) belong to the horns, they are the nightingales in the soprano of brass music". He therefore preferred and recommended these special instrumen ...

Minister (Christianity)
In Christianity, a minister is a person authorised by a church body, church or other religious organization to perform functions such as teaching of beliefs; leading services such as weddings, baptisms or funerals; or otherwise providing spiritual guidance to the community. The term is taken from Latin ''minister'' ("servant", "attendant"). In some church traditions the term is usually used for people who have been ordained, but in other traditions it can also be used for non-ordained.

By the time David was twenty (in 1885), it is believed he was already doing business under his own name. By 1888 he was making musical instruments. By 1904 his business had grown to become a small instrument factory. After his death the factory kept the name of Ernst David, but was owned by his son Albert David. The instrument company specialized in making brass instruments, many of which were used by Posaunen (brass horns) choirs in Protestant congregations in Germany and beyond. Johannes Kuhlo collaborated with Ernst David to develop the Kuhlohorn for use by Posaunen choirs. Some Ernst David instruments are still in regular use. Several examples can be found in musical instrument collections. Presently it is not clear when the instrument factory stopped operating; most likely it was during World War II World War II or the Second World War (1 September 1939 – 2 S ...
