The French Horn
The
horn is a brass instrument that consists of tubing wrapped into
a coiled form. The instrument was first developed in France in
about 1650 from the cor de chasse or hunting horn, and has been
known as the French horn since it was refined and improved in
England in 1750, although musicians, and particularly players of
the instrument, generally refer to it simply as the horn.For more detailed information we suggest you click on the 'Wikipedia' link where the above is taken from
