I must say bravo to the lady who made this. I mean she hit everything dead on and great first note on it. When playing French Horn it’s all about that first note, it’s much like a job interview where the first impression counts. The French Horn is such a majestical instrument, I thank you so much for going over this amazing instrument.

Whether you are a professional or not, it's good to learn to play courageously and not timidly. In a performance, even if you miss some note or chip some note, most listeners won't know. The conductor and some others in the orchestra might, but sometimes not even then. Just continue playing as if nothing happened.

It was my dream, as a teenager, to play the French horn. I was inspired by my music teacher, who was a retired Director of Music of the Scots Guards, Lt. Col. Sam Rhodes. He was a fine musician, multi-instrumental and a great teacher. He introduced me to the Mozart Horn Concertos and I was hooked. Sadly it never happened, and now I am in my later years, it won't, so I just listen!

i've been playing trumpet for 8 years and just started on french horn for my high school band class, it's definitely going to take a while to get used to the new fingerings. Luckily it's a single horn so a lot of them are the same as trumpet.

I had chosen to start playing the French horn for band class, and this really helped!

The French horn is a beautiful instrument. I'd love to be able to play jazz on it. The soft edges of the sound are just amazing. It eases into everything. I love it. Also, I'd love to make some time with this teacher...lol I had to come back and edit this, she's so cute! lol

Using "Du" instead of "Tu" to start a note usually makes a little bit softer start to the note. "Tu" usually makes a little bit sharper start. Neither is right or wrong. You might have a reason to use either one depending on what is musically best for a particular piece.

For a more clear tone open up your throat to the point were it feels like your about to sing. French Horn is a wonderful instrument and I trust your band directors have told you every thing else that could help you on horn. You have a splendid day.

So, I'm a beginning horn player, almost fully self taught (other than concert recordings and fingering charts) and I started getting the airy sound when a screw that held one of the strings popped out of my first valve. Fortunately, it was a quick fix. Although, music stores do it for $200 so unless you know how to fix it, be wary of what is fully happening to the horn before going to take it to a repair shop.

@singhh5050

3 жыл бұрын

firm up your corners and keep your bottom lip against your teeth. don't use excessive pressure from the mouthpiece tho. using more air will help as well. try buzzing on your mouthpiece as warm up everytime you practice. don't move on to playing until you can get a consistent, full buzz. when you plug in the mouthpiece to your horn, it will be 10x easier. hope this helps!

Ah yes 10 minutes of absolutely nothing I wanted but still needed

Thanks for your help just wondering do you have a video instructing how to play the long gunting horn?

Thank you very much for this valuable information. 🙏

Her breathing part was hilarious love it

The horn rocking back and forth in the toughening

I was playing clarinet but not my type of instrument so in middle school they added some instruments and I am trying the French or the trumpet

I remember back in high school orchestra (WAY back) that our conductor taught the proper way to sit as the very first thing. She is correct. But he went so far as to say keep you back straight, don't lean back against the chair back, be completely balanced - such that if you would die you would continue to be sitting in that position. A strange way to look at it, but it means you are having good posture and not wasting any energy just trying to sit.

I played french horn in middle and HS, over 5 years, then dropped it. Now 15 years later I kinda wanna pick it back up.

I never thought I'd see the day when someone used dimes as finger grips for valves. I am sold

yay, thanks!

Hey Kid. Let me tell you, that that instrument is actually the most prolific sound in the greatest movie scores, that Ennio Morricone used. And some interesting trivia, There used to be a showman pianist called Liberace. His dad played the French Horn and Liberace in his youth used that as his base, instead of a guitar. I could never ever produce a movie score without HORNS, VIOLONS, AND FLUTES Bless you.

Regarding the "pinky ring". It might be most typical that it is a fixed ring. But some horns have an adjustable one. If the position of the pinky ring is too uncomfortable, you can move an adjustable one. You can also have someone that does work on brass instruments install an adjustable pinky ring if it might make holding the horn more comfortable.

Could you possibly make a video on how to fix stuck valves? I got my french horn not too long ago and the valves were stuck. I tried oiling them like someone said, but it didn't change anything. I now have two valves stuck, and can't figure out how to fix them.

Excellent, concise introduction!

As a fan of Chicago (whose three brass players sound like one French Horn when they’re in unison) and The Who (the only rock ‘n’ roll band I’m aware of to feature the horn in their original material), I need to say that I hope the future holds more examples of the Horn in rock music. Is concert middle C everybody’s first note?

It’s literally impossible for me to buzz a normal sounding note, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Everytime I buzz the pitch is lower than what it sounds when you buzz. And I’m focusing on everything you do, corners firm, lips together like I’m saying “m”. I really don’t know what to do
