Best Answer

A french horn is played into a mouthpiece that travels along a tube down and back up to a main tuning slide, usually containing a "spit valve". Then, it travels through a network of rotating valves and through a larger tube out. On a double horn, however, after the first network of valves, it can decisively travel through another tuning slide and through more valves to the same exit.
