Description
The Holton H279 Farkas Professional French Horn is the same as the H179, but features a detachable large throat bell. Farkas models are highly regarded among professional players and academics alike. These French Horns produce the beautifully centered tone, and true temper makes even the most difficult passages delightfully accessible. The solid nickel silver edition model H279 projects and centers effortlessly. This free-blowing horn features a rich, dark sound designed for the "big horn" artist. The tapered tubing and throat of the bell are larger for a bigger, darker tone. The H279's bell flare produces a smooth, rich tone with pleasant overtones. Hard nickel silver contruction gives quick response and bright tone closer to the player.
