On my horn I am capable of nearly a 4 and a half octave range, from a low c up to a high f. Although, many people can go beyond those boundaries. So maybe like 5 octaves if you are absolutely amazing at horn.
oh yeah......since there are little people that play the french horn, many scholarships are available to them. (ima french horn playa!) :] oh yeah......since there are little people that play the french horn, many scholarships are available to them. (ima french horn playa!) :]
No. A marching french horn, also called a mellophone, has a shape more like a trumpet with a large bell facing forward. A "regular" french horn has the bell facing backwards. You use your left hand to play the french horn and your right hand to play the mellophone. Fingering also changes to that identical to a trumpet, or a B-flat Horn (the E's and D's are fingered differently). Some mellophones are made to be used with a trumpet (cornet) mouthpiece, but there are adapters you can use to use your horn mouthpiece. Other mellophone are made to be used only with a horn mouthpiece.
The french horn is a beautiful instrument used in many pieces in soaring melodies.

About 12 feet for the single French Horn, although the double horn and some different models could have slight variations.
