French Horns
Conn French Horns
Steeped in the American orchestral tradition, Conn French Horns are back and better than ever. There are still major American symphony orchestras that require in their contract the distinct and legendary "Conn sound". Major conservatories and universities recommend Conn French Horns to their students because they want them "to work" after graduation. The wide selection of models, materials and features, combined with the superior design and precision made components are unmatched in player approval. Whipkey's Music takes great care to stock almost all models for you!
