These nsvumentscldnot have valves, and changed notes by using various “crooks” or tuning slides. Most horn players had to perform with several crooks that allowed them to play the correct notes, In 1660, the trompe was introduced in France. This instrument's tubing had 2 1/2 coils, and retained the nickname “French” horn. However, German instrument makers actually perfected today's horn. Stélzel and Bluhmel added valves to the horn in 1818, which eliminated the need for crooks. Rotary valves, introduced in 1853, are commonly found on today's horns. “single” horns in F have 3 valves, while “double” horns in F/B have 3 valves and a thumb key. Hors provide an important, full middle voice in the concert band. They blend well with all instruments, and play solos, melodies and harmonies. Mozart, Beethoven, Mahler R. Strauss and Wagner are all composers who have featured horns in their writing, Two famous horn performers are Barry Tuckwell and Philip Farkas, NYOH JHL 40 AYOLSIH ISBN 0-634-00321-6 Copyright © 2004 by HAL LEONARD CORPORATION International Copyright Secured All Rights Reserved HALeLEONARD® CORPORATION THE BASICS Posture Sit on the edge of your chair, and always keep your: + Spine straight and tall + Shoulders back and relaxed + Feet flat on the floor Breathing & Airstream Breathing is a natural thing we all do constantly. To discover the correct air- stream to play your instrument: + Place the palm of your hand near your mouth. + Inhale deeply through the comers of your mouth, keeping your shoulders steady. Your waist should expand like a balloon. + Slowly whisper "tah" as you gradually exhale air into your palm. The air you feel is the airstream. It produces sound through the instrument. Your tongue is like a faucet or valve that releases the airstream, Producing The Essential Tone “Buzzing” through the mouthpiece produces your tone. The buzzis a fast vibration in the center of your lips. Embouchure (ahm bah-shure) is your mouth's position on the mouthpiece of the instrument. A good embouchure takes time and effort, so carefully follow these steps for success: BUZZING + Moisten your lips. + Bring your lips together as if saying the letter “m." + Relax your jaw to separate your upper and lower teeth + Forma slightly puckered smile to firm the corners of your mouth. + Direct a full airstream through the center of your lips, creating a buzz. + Buzz frequently without your mouthpiece. MOUTHPIECE PLACEMENT If you are switching from trumpet to horn, note that the horn mouthpiece placement is nearly the opposite as the trumpet mouthpiece placement. + Form your “buzzing” embouchure. + Place the mouthpiece approximately 2/3 on the upper lip and 1/3 on the lower lip. Your teacher may suggest a slightly different mouthpiece placement. + Take a full breath through the comers of your mouth. + Start your buzz with the syllable “tah.” Buzz through the center of your lips keeping a steady, even buzz. Your lips provide a cushion for the mouthpiece. MOUTHPIECE WORKOUT Taking Care Of Your Instrument Before putting your instrument back in its case after playing, do the following: + Use the water key to empty water from the instrument. Blow air through it. If your horn does not have a water key, invert the instrument. You may also remove the main tuning slide, invert the instrument and remove excess water. + Wipe the instrument off with a clean soft cloth. Return the instrument to its case. + Remove the mouthpiece. ‘Once a week, wash the mouth piece with warm tap water. Dry thoroughly. Horn valves and slides occasionally need lubricating. Your director will recommend valve oil and slide grease, and will help you apply them when necessary. Using only the mouthpiece, form your embouchure carefully. Take a deep breath without raising your shoulders. Bet | REST “tah” “tah” buzzing your lips by whispering “tah” and gradually exhale your full airstream.
