alto horn

Our cook’s husband, a giant, tar-black Negro named Loomis Toy, blew the alto horn in the Negro band.

It was as different as day and dark from his former tone, with a sad, timbrous quality like an alto horn, sinking into their hearts and speaking there again when it had ceased in fading and cumulate echoes.

Mr. Garchik multitracked all the parts: many trombones, a sousaphone, a baritone horn, a slide trumpet, an alto horn.

C; the highest note in the treble part is , the 12th harmonic of the 8-ft. alto horn in C, now obsolete.

The harmonic series of the horn, or the open notes obtainable without using valves or crooks, is written as for the alto horn in C of 8 ft. tone, which forms the standard of notation.
