  • I think it's a triple French horn

  • What type of horn is that?

  • I love this video, it show how hard the horn is to play. Even a great pro like Ifor James hits a wrong, or at least unintended note.

  • Prof. Dr.,

    Much thanks for this video and this series; it is very helpful to me. I must enquire: what DOES that extra valve do? Is it an octave valve?

  • Fantastic video - very informative! A funny guy as well haha. Just wondering, what horn is he using? I've never seen one with the same slide configuration and everything...

  • thank you. i get it now.

  • I like his lessons. What kind of horn he playing?
