Is a marching French horn the same as a regular French horn?
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.
What is a regular French horn?
Ambiguous. Most likely though, a horn in F, a double horn, or, less often, a Bb horn. Or, not a marching horn.

What is a French horn?
A French Horn is a musical instrument in the brass section. You make sounds by buzzing your lips in the mouthpiece, similar to all other brass instruments. (The Saxophone is not a brass instrument. Even though it looks metallic, it is a woodwind.) The French Horn looks like a snail, it is circular in appearance. It is basically made of a 12 feet long metallic tubing, wound into a circle. The French Horn is usually in the F key, which is why they are also called "F Horn." There are also "double horns," where you have an additional valve that switches the horn to the B flat key. Double horns allow a more accurate pitch overall, since some notes are more accurate on the F horn, and others are more accurate on the B flat horn. Double horns also allow variety in fingering.
What are facts about a french horn?
The most common types of French Horn are the single horn, which is generally used by beginners, and the double horn. The single horn is usually in the key of F, and is lighter and simpler to learn. The double horn is actually two horns combined--the single F horn plus additional tubing and a fourth valve to create a B-flat horn. The B-flat portion of the horn has a better, brighter tone for the high notes.Related horns you might see include the marching horn, pitched in B-flat, and the mellophone, pitched in F.
