No, the horn in C is not a transposing instrument. In fact, the horn is typically classified as a non-transposing instrument when played in its fundamental key. However, the French horn, which is most commonly used in orchestras, is a transposing instrument, typically in the key of F, meaning that written notes sound a perfect fifth lower than concert pitch.
The French horn is an F instrument. That means when a middle C is played on the horn, it sounds the same as an F a fifth below middle C on the piano.
The key of c is open valve. I would know, I play trumpet, french horn and mellophone.
The tuba has the lowest frequencies among brass instruments, including the French horn. It is designed to produce deep, rich tones in the lower range, typically in the key of C or B♭. While the French horn can play low notes, its range is higher compared to that of the tuba, making the tuba the instrument with the lowest frequencies.
If on an F horn, you finger D flat with the first and second valves.
I play the french horn and am not really sure what you mean by what kind of music. A french horn can play any music. I recently preformed at a black history month concert and played blues/jazz music on my french horn. If you mean the key its played in the key of F. Hope that helped:)
The correct name for the instrument is simply the horn, or F horn, or horn in F. That F refers to the key in which it plays. People erroneously thought the F stood for French, and the name stuck. There was something unsatisfying about calling an instrument the horn without adding a modifier to the name.
