I read in a John Fletcher article that he (Fletch) was in the market for a large CC when Tucci offered that Holton 'Vesuvius' (or something). Fletch had heard Tucci playing on the Solti Ring cycle so he "knew what the horn was capable of"! He bought the horn and took 3 months off from the BBC Symph to work-up his CC playing before "daring to play it in public". Like he needed to worry : )

I understand the horn is now owned by Steve Wick (London) and is being overhauled ready to be played again...
