Today we’re learning about an instrument from the brass family — the French horn. As we do whenever we have an episode about a particular kind of instrument, we’ll learn about the “anatomy” of the instrument and how it’s played, the kinds of music the instrument plays and, of course, we’ll listen to lots of exciting French horn music while we do all of this learning!
