If you uncoil all of a regular french horn's tubing, in total it would be 12 feet long!
If unrolled, the French Horn would be 12 feet long, or 4 meters!
When stretched out, it would be 12 ft or 4 meters long!
about 4 meters
12 to 13 feet of metal tubing.
The horn consists of about 12-13 ft
7 meters streched out
12 to 13 feet of metal tubing
The Bb Trumpet, NOT the French Horn, has 9 ft. French horns have 12-18 feet of tubing.
There are two factors. One is that the length of the tubing required for the horn would, if straightened out, make a very long and unwieldy horn (you know that horn they use in the Ricola commercials?), so they curl it up instead. The other is just to give it a decorative shape.
If you mean if all of the tubing were uncoiled it would be between 12 and 13 feet long.
For a double horn, the F side is 12 feet long, and the B flat side is 9 feet long. On a single horn, it will only be in one of these keys. Each valve lowers the pitch by adding extra length: the first valve by 2 semitones the second valve by 1 semitone and the third valve by 3 semitones

A massive horn 10 meters long
as long as you can, but eventually your lips will become very numb.
The French Horn's range easily surpasses the other brass instrument's do to its unique shape. It is conical like other brass, but doesn't open as quickly allowing higher range while having long circular tubing enabling the lower register.
French horns are typically used in orchestras as a role that are similar to trumpets: to act as a fanfare-like "battle call" instrument. They can be loud or soft, which make them very versatile instruments and of all the instruments in the brass family, the French horn is said to contain the most amount of tubing.If stretched the french horn measures out 3.7m in lengthit is well over 3m long OMGThe horn comes from a long tradition of instruments first used in ancient china,egypt,and scaninavia.In the 1600's the natural horn was used in the royal mounted hunt.The horn became a regular member of the orchestra during the 1700's
