Strictly speaking there are six horns in a brass band. * Flugel Horn (1) * Tenor Horn (3) * Baritone Horn (2) However, brass band players and conductors commonly refer to these instruments simply as "Flugel", "Horn" and "Baritone". In this context the number of horns is three (i.e. the three Tenor Horns).
