En 1993, John Kenny se convirtió en la primera persona en tocar el karnyx después de 2000 años y desde entonces ha impartido clases e interpreta con el instrumento en salas de conciertos.
Tour Scotland video of a Carnyx Celtic War Trumpet being played in the City Centre on visit to Perth, Perthshire. The carnyx was a wind instrument of the Iron Age Celts. Entering battle, Iron Age warriors unnerved their opponents by the sheer volume of noise they could make. This replica of the Deskford Carnyx was being played by the incredible John Kenny.
