The french horn is in the category of Brass instruments. All other brass instruments are technically relatives of the french horn.

The closest thing I could think of is a mellophone.... Its like a french horn but for Marching Band.... It sort of looks like a Trumpet. Trumpets are also relatives of the french horn... I would suggest if you are a beginner to start out on the trumpet then move to one of these instruments.... I would know because I play mellophone now and its my 3rd year of band and I just stopped playing trumpet. Hope this helps.
