The HOLTON H379 Double French Horn, made in the USA, is renowned for its impeccable musical features. Played by numerous artists, it delivers a sound rich in harmonics, broad, and with great ease of emission. Its design is close to the professional H179 horn, with a darker sound and grand projection.
Equipped with a large-bore nickel silver bell (12.20 inches) and a bore size of 0.468 inches, the H379 allows for excellent resonance and precise response. The ability to switch between F/Bb and Bb/F key configurations offers great flexibility in use.
With its mouthpipe and inner/outer slides made of nickel silver, the H379 ensures superior sound quality and a better openness in sound compared to yellow brass models. This facilitates playing and allows for increased expressiveness.
The string-link mechanism offers precise adjustment and rapid response, enabling musicians to explore a wide range of dynamics and expressions. The H379 is thus an ideal choice for professionals and advanced students seeking a versatile and high-performing instrument.
