An ivory horn, traditionally made from the tusks of elephants, is played by blowing air into one end to create sound. The musician varies the pitch by adjusting their embouchure (the way they position their mouth) and may cover holes or openings along the horn to change the notes. The player can produce different tones and dynamics by controlling the airflow and fingerings. Due to ethical concerns regarding ivory, modern instruments may use alternative materials.
