Same! I feel like nowadays it’s hard to find French horn players because it’s proven to be hard and a lot of people just like it to be easy whilst on F horn you can press 1 and it will play half of the notes know to man

[@RandomVids5YT]

Same, I also have Lost Woods Fantasy and Lions March

@@that1hornplayer83 is it actually that hard? Because he sometimes as a friendly way make fun of one of my friends for playing the f horn since we play bigger instruments such as the tuba. Nah My Respects to him
