French Horn

I believe the horn is behind the " splash shield " in the drivers front fender , in front of the tire , mounted below the battery tray

The top of the range usually goes up to the C above the staff, but most repertoire doesn't go that high.

Getting tired from doing any form of exercise is expected. (Yes, playing horn is a form of exercise: you're working out your lip muscles and using a lot of air.) Even so, one must always be stretching to improve their endurance with the instrument, as a runner works on improving their endurance.

Getting tired from playing the french horn can be caused by many factors:

1. Bad habbits (pressing the mouthpiece on your face, overtight muscles, etc)

2. Little practicing and/or not adding more time as you go on

3. Lack of experience (aka, it'll get easier over time)

A horn teacher at a music camp I went to once told me that, "If it's difficult, you're doing something wrong." I wouldn't say that this is always true, but there is some essence behind it.

Tips:

1. Take your mouthpiece off your horn and do lots of buzzing. I buzz sirens (slurring up and down my range) as well as some melodies that cover a wide range. (This is also a great practicing technique for harder sections)

2. Make sure you're not pushing your mouthpiece on your face. (I know... it works quite well, but it actually causes more harm than good in the long run) Instead, firm up your corners.

3. Use more air! Seriously, you can never use too much air in playing the horn.

4. Persist!!

I hope this helps! =)

the french!

NO! You should never quit playing the French Horn. Although it is one of the world's hardest instruments to play, it is also the most beautiful sounding instrument.

The best joke is...

What did one wall say to the other?

Meet you at the corner!

Only joking, the best joke ever is...

Two hunters are in the woods, when one of them suddenly collapses. He wasn't breathing, and his eyes looked glazed. Thinking quickly, the other guy grabs his cell phone and calls for help. He shouts at the emergency operator, "My friend is dead! What do I do!?"

"Calm down", the operator says, "I can help you. But first, we need to make sure he's dead." The phone goes silent, for a second. Then the operator hears a gunshot.

"OK," says the hunter, "now what?"

-OR-

Knock knock?

Who's there?

Doctor.

Doctor who?

Finally, someone else that watches that show!

Has to do with your lips and the emboucher ... that is how close or far apart the lips are when blowing.

Try twisting the snake a few times and then continue twisting as you pull it out. If it doesn't budge, take it to a repair shop.

If it's stuck in the valves, don't mess with it. Take it straight to the repair shop. Valves are super delicate and complicated as well as expensive to replace.

Hope this helps!! =)

Barry Tuckwell is famous for playing the Fench Horn

ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS Trombone book 1

No, the stagecoach driver had the horn provided by the city to announce visitors coming in on the stagecoach.

Yes, and no. I suspect far more no than yes.

First, tone. The french horn tone is utterly different from any of the saxophones. The saxophone was intended to provide a string-like sustained tone to the wind band. There was never an intention of approaching the sound of the french horn, since that was already available, and Adolph Sax was trying to expand the sound-pallet of wind bands when he invented the Saxophone. It is the french horn's tone that keeps it as part of the woodwind quintet; as for brass quintets, the saxophone largely reproduces the tone of trumpets and trombones (without actually sounding much like them) and would reduce the tonal variety, considerably. (Many composers and arrangers discover, the hard way, that variety is what has kept the traditional woodwind and brass quintets in their accepted forms for so long!)

Second, attack. The french horn has a very characteristic "double blip" in the start of notes, which can be smoothed to almost nothing on quite notes but becomes quite pronounced at the higher dynamics. The saxophone lacks this characteristic. Eliminating this characteristic sound element would further reduce the diversity of sound in either woodwind or brass quintet.

Third, the sax is a considerably different instrument from the horn, with a completely different approach to sound generation, so that phrases which would be liquid and facile on one instrument would sound awkward and out of place on the other. This is one of those venn-diagram things, where two circles are overlaid, some of the area of each circle is superimposed, but each circle has area which does not jibe with the other. This is most-often a matter of taste, and requires consideration of the audience as well as the music director. (Sometimes, this works fairly well, like the canonical "What do I do, the oboe player just swallowed his last reed!"..."Use a muted trumpet!" joke.)

Finally, transposition. The horn is usually written in F, meaning that when the hornist sees a C in his music, the note he plays comes out as F in "orchestral pitch". The Saxophones are pitched in Bb and Eb, so any F horn parts will require transposition. There are Eb horn parts, which would be directly readable on the proper-sized sax, but the Eb horn is even more sonically removed from the sound of saxophones that the effect could be anything from annoying to unacceptable, even to completely untrained and unfamiliar non-musicians.

So largely, substituting a sax for a horn would be a good thing only in cases where the necessity is so great, or the desire to fit a player who only plays sax into a quintet so pressing, that it would outweigh the affects.

no the tuba is.

The metal the french horn is made of would be a homogeneous mixture, since you can't distinctively tell the different types of metals within the final metal mixture. I guess as a whole it could be a heterogeneous mixture, since you can see the distinct different parts, such as the strings on the rotary valves.

since there are so many valves, and they are rotory valves, there are actual tubes for each valve, including a valve for the trigger and a valve for no buttons as well. there are not as many valves on the trumpet because they have a different type of valves: the valves of the trumpet work like when you press down the button, the actual valve moves and a hole opens so it shows that the button was pushed down so the pitch comes through. there is only one necessary tube on the trumpet, because the valves are just holes in the tube. this is different on horn, because there are different tubes for each valve. the horn valves are rotors, so when you press down the button, the rotor moves and opens a hole. there is a different rotor for each valve, which means that every valve MUST have its own tube. this is why there are so many tubes on the horn:]

To transpose from concert pitch to horn pitch, you transpose it up a fifth or down a fourth. A fifth up from C4 would be G4, so you would play a G4 on the horn for a C4.

Hope this helps =)

Hey cuties

Well... what was it doing up there anyways..

Well to remove it, you get a male, because they have stronger hands you see, and he sticks his hand up the genital rectum and gradually starts pulling it out. Then he sticks his other hand up and yanks it out. After that you get rid of the object.

hint :Stop sticking un-necessary things up your french horn

Hope i helped :) Bye cuties x0xoxoxo

It's a sort-of high pitched noise.

The french curve is a set of segments of Euler spirals, also known as clothoids. The curvature of a clothoid varies linearly along its length. If you start at the least curved end of one of the segments (curvature closest to zero) there will be a declining radius of curvature as you go until you reach the end of that segment. The french curve set has several segments with different rates of curvature change.

Sometimes music scores are non-transposed to make things easier for the composer and conductor.

thay are stops place each side of the rudder to help the controls

No..that could possibly damage the horn.

3 complete concertos, and two movements of another.
