"Study of the horn will take the student through periods of exasperation, elation, challenge, downright enslavement, and finally, fascination and deep love for a noble, thrilling instrument."
-Phillip Farkas (The Art of French Horn Playing)
Based on the title I can already tell some of you are ready to jump in and say that, "It's just called the horn!" I've got some news for you though, there actually is a bionafied "French" horn player out there. His name is Michèle Lauzière and he's quite a famous musical comedian, appearing on Letterman. The French-Canadian has performed his one-man show, including many other musical bits, for over an estimated one billion people over five continents. Hopefully if enough people see him, they'll stop calling our horn, the French horn...
