    That is not a horn. Purple correctly identified it as a trumpet.

      It’s pretty common to call all wind instruments horns in a band context, it is a trumpet but most musicians aren’t going to be mad at calling it a horn. Still a bad pick up line

        Trumpeter here, I’d be insulted if I was called a horn. Might be regional, but that’s not common here. If we’re speaking about horns, it’s only French horns

          Another trumpeter here. If it was a wind instrument that didn’t have a reed it was called a horn.

              “Brass” “woodwind” and “Percussion” were the clinical anatomy textbook words and “horn” “wind” and “drum” were the casual everyday words.

          Enh, in my experience “horn” refers to a French horn, but “horns” refers to all brass (separate from woodwinds, percussion, etc).

          But yeah, if somebody referred to a horn, I’d assume they meant French horn.

            Doesn’t look like that article says anything about trumpets to me. It does link to this article about horns, though: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_(instrument)

            That one says:

            In horns, unlike some other brass instruments such as the trumpet, the bore gradually increases in width through most of its length—that is to say, it is conical rather than cylindrical.[1]

            Which seems to specifically exclude trumpets from horns.

              Most of these horn sections feature some combination of saxophones, trumpets and trombones.

              Also the popular music section includes two photos with people playing trumpet and lists a bunch of horn sections, most of which contain trumpets.

          In my experience its very common, just to give a counterpoint. “Bring in the horns” to denote a trumpet heavy section, or just referring to the brass section as “the horn section”. 8dk might just be reguonal i guess but its colloquial.

              Differently, because that’s a poor analogy. Trumpets are horns, guitars are stringed instruments. Now, if they called their trumpet a kazoo, it’d be time to throw down.

        No. Tubing and curl is wrong. It’s not quite right for a trumpet either, but having 16 pixels doesn’t give you much room for accuracy, I guess.
