The French horn is different from other brass instruments primarily due to its unique coiled shape and the use of a rotary valve system, which allows for a wider range of notes and greater control over tone. Unlike most brass instruments that are played with a straight or slightly curved tube, the French horn's design contributes to its distinct warm and mellow sound. Additionally, the player’s hand position in the bell can significantly affect the instrument’s timbre and intonation, setting it apart from others in the brass family.

The tone of a brass instrument hugely depends on how it is being played. All brass instruments can sound sweet if the player is making it sound that way.
It was originally intended as an instrument for German marching bands, but spread to British brass band music, where it remains a staple in any ensemble. It is still used frequently in marching and military ensembles internationally.
yes All brass instruments come from the same basic origins. The brass instrument that has changed the least over the last 200 years is the trombone.
Woodwind especially the double reed instruments are more difficult with the exception of the French Horn a brass instrument which is probably the most difficult wind instrument of all to play properly.

Yes, a trombone is a brass musical instrument. Like all brass instruments, sound is produced by the vibration of the player's lips in the mouthpiece.

All the other brass instruments because they have valves.
Yellow brass tends to be the brightest and warmest, red or 'rose' brass tends to be more mellow, and nickel silver tends to have the harshest (but not necessarily bad) sound of the three. It all depends on the player though, rose brass can be bright if the player wants it to be.
Brass instruments are different from all the other instruments in that the person playing is solely responsible for the sound of the instrument. Brass instruments require the player to buzz their lips in the mouthpiece. This sound reverberates throughout the instrument and produces the sound that comes out of it. This differs from other instruments, where the player makes part of the instrument vibrate (i.e. reed, string, drum head). The pitch of brass instruments is then changed by changing the frequency of the vibrations created by the lips. If you buzz your lips at a higher pitch, the instrument plays a higher note. The opposite is also true. Buzzing your lips at a lower pitch creates a lower note.
