The best instrument ever. Pitched in F with over 5-6 octaves, one of the hardest brass instruments to learn and master. (I havent mastered it myself. Another 10 years for me. :-D) Mastering could take years and years and many hornists havent ever mastered this beautiful instrument. Heard in Wind Ensembles, Orchestras and Chamber Ensembles as many people who play horn cannot play well. Only determination and will power can get you to play this instrument well. Most people dont know that embouchre and air are the key to this instrument. Hard to play in tune when you start off. Once mastered this instrument can bring the very best out of you. Word.
John: You play French Horn?!?!? Are you kidding me?!?!? That instrument sucks!
Evan: No. It's the best damn instrument ever. Get it straight.

Get the french horn mug.A misnomer for the Horn in F or F Horn; this instrument plays in the key of F and was invented in Germany. However, it was mistakenly called the "French Horn". The International Horn Society has declared the official name of this instrument to be the Horn.
A single Horn has 3 keyes, while a double Horn has 4. A talented Horn player can play over 6 octaves on this instrument.

Get the horn trip mug.The act of having sex with animal horns/tusks. The woman inserts the non-sharp end of the horn. She then has sex with her partner's anus or vagina. If she masturbates with the horn, she lifts only one leg up and inserts the sharp end of the horn and continues until orgasm occurs. Different sharp objects can be used for this act, such as a butterknife, a cone, etc.
Man, Julie was masturbating with a goat's horn yesterday. I think she called it the Wicked Horn. Fucking crazy.
