I took Woodwind Methods and Brass Methods in college, so I learned to play a fair handful of wind instruments. I've played flute, bass clarinet, and trombone in various bands over the years, but I have a basic knowledge of trumpet/cornet, French horn, baritone/euphonium, and the sax family. One of the reasons I don't play more French horn is I don't have one and I can't justify the cost of getting one at this juncture. But French horn is my second favorite brass instrument, next to trombone (though, I haven't tried tuba yet). I'm partial to bass instruments, as you can tell, with the exception of the flute.
