How similiar are the Trumpet and French Horn embrochure?
I'm thinking about learning to play the French Horn, and am just wondering. I can already play the trumpet well, and would like to get another instrument under my belt, just because the French Horns have a unique sound. Thanks!
According to Claude Gordon, every brass instrument uses essentially the same embouchure. That is, 2/3 of the mouthpiece on the top lip and 1/3 on the bottom.
However, only French Horn teaching regularly promotes the use of this correct embouchure setup. So if you play more on the top lip than the bottom, the transition will be easy. If you play more on the bottom than the top, the transition will be much more difficult.
Many players without proper instruction favor the bottom lip because it is easier to develop at first than a top-lip controlled embouchure.
Many brass instructors encourage their students to play several different brass instruments. As a trumpet player, I enjoy playing the baritone, but only as a way to improve my trumpet playing (which occurs because the baritone naturally requires focus on other parts of the playing machine -- e.g. breath right or go home, pinching out notes not acceptable).
