Brass Instruments

In an orchestra, the horns are in the back usually.

In good condition, old Connstellations can easily sell for around $1,000.

go to a game and walk up to a trombonist and ask to see it, fool proof

There are no wholesale dealers, but perhaps posting it on Craigslist will lead to a sale.

The frequency range of a baritone is within the frequency range of normal spoken voice. High frequencies and very low frequencies sets up harmonics that induce a vibration, when these frequencies conflict that's when glass breaks. The baritone range is almost in the middle of these two and thus can't set up the vibration needed to induce a damaging harmonic

It's extremely rare to play a high b flat in 8th grade. However when I was in 8th grade we had a scale test to see our ranges. the low brass was expected to do a written full range chromatic scale from low E flat to a high B flat, Two octave F major scale and a two octave G major scale, then we were to do one octave for the rest of the scales.

The Euphonium is a member of the brass family, and more specifically it is a member of the low brass family.

An F horn, also known as a French horn or just a horn, is a brass wind instrument consisting of around 13 feet of metal tubing coiled up into a circular shape with a very large bell and 3 rotary valves, though some have a fourth key that acts as a bass key, which would make it a double horn. As the name suggests, it plays in the key of F, with it's concert Bb scale starting on F, and it's the only brass instrument played with the left hand. It can be played in both brass and woodwind groups, even though it is a brass instrument. It's arguably the hardest instrument to play in an orchestra.

I'm a horn player myself and I love the beautiful sound of this instrument! Hope this helps!

Umm... Yes. Most common size in the 12c, however more advanced players use larger deeper mouthpiece to get a better sound/tone

The trumpet was invented in 1814 by Heinrich Stolzel.
No one knows for sure who invented the trumpet. They were used for war calls in ancient times.

Part of the reason is that it's an efficient shape, in that it's relatively compact. The other reason is that one aspect of playing it involves hand position inside the bell, which wouldn't work if the bell was facing front.

F (open)

G (1-2)

A (2)

B flat (open)

C (1)

D (open or 1-2)

F (open)

No. It's a cheap, imported, low-end brand, poorly built with cheap materials. Don't buy it.

That's correct. Different types of mutes in turn create different types of sounds.

Tunning. Push them in, and the horn gets more sharp. Pull them out, and the horn gets more flat.

When you are pressing the key/valve only halfway, and you get a muffled, and incorrect note.

A small Trombone.

To play it, you have to put air through it.

No, the French horn has no buttons. However, there are 4 valves; the 1st valve, the 2nd valve, the 3rd valve, and the thumb key.

The Roman tuba was used as a military signal trumpet.

It depends on the size of the trombone and the size of the bugle!

A typical tenor trombone is longer in length than a military-type bugle; however, a soprano trombone is MUCH smaller than a bass bugle used in a drum and bugle corps ensemble.

The most common low brass instruments are:

1. Trombone (bass trombone is lower than tenor trombone)

2. Euphonium & baritone horn

3. Tuba

Aerophone

There could be a number of things in the bell. Clean it with a trumpet cleaning snake and run water through it.
