Anyway, browsing the web site there was a link to "Friday Quiz" which took me to this item dated 2009! But back to the Post Horn. Surely the most well-known piece for this instrument is the "Post Horn Gallop", a tune I think most people would recognize! Regarding straight vs bent, interestingly, a quick check on Youtube for "Post Horn Gallop" throws up mostly videos with straight post horns.
