For an A major scale the fingerings are:
1&2(A)
2(B)
1&2(C#)
1(D)
open(E)
2(F#)
2&3(G#)
1&2(A)
If you want to play with the thumb key the fingerings are:
T&1&2(A)
T&2(B)
T&2&3(C#)
T&1&2(D)
T&2(E)
T&3(F#)
T&2&3(G#)
T&1&2(A)
These fingerings are for a one octave scale starting with second line A below the staff and ending with second space A in the staff. Although I gave the Thumb key fingering for F#, you should use the other fingering for this note. Also these are the fingerings for the A major scale in horn key. If you want the A
Concert scale it is the same as the E horn scale, which has the same sharps except for D#, which is the same as Eb.
Okay this is for double horn... Our e flat scale 2 1 open thumb 23 thumb 1 thumb open thumb 12 thumb 1 hope this helps
The correct scale for concert pitch C on a tenor horn is a C major.
It turns it into a B flat horn, the fingerings change when you hold down the trigger.
Depends how you finger the f horn. Horn can use any fingerings that mellophone can, but not the other way around. This is because the overtone series of the horn is an octave below that of the mellophone. ~ Adding onto that, mellowphones use the same fingerings as trumpets. Generally, the fingerings are the same as the F horn fingerings an octave lower, but not always.
The French horn is built so that it sounds in the key of F. If a hornist's music says to play a middle C, it will be the same pitch as an F below middle C on the piano. If a piece of music is writen in Concert F, a C-instrument, such as a trombone, will have one flat (B flat) in his or her key signature while a hornist will have no sharps or flats.
An Fb scale on the horn is the same as the E scale!! Crazy, huh? Hope this helps!! =)
Trumpet fingerings can be used on French Horn, but those are not the standard fingerings. They also cannot be used when the Thumb Key or Trigger (T) is used.
Okay this is for double horn... Our e flat scale 2 1 open thumb 23 thumb 1 thumb open thumb 12 thumb 1 hope this helps
Kinda. A mellophone is a trumpet pitched like a french horn. It has mostly trumpet fingerings.
The correct scale for concert pitch C on a tenor horn is a C major.
It turns it into a B flat horn, the fingerings change when you hold down the trigger.
F (1), G (open), A (1 2), Bb (1), C (open), D (open), E (open), F (1)
Fb would be the same as E natural, so it would be open.
The French Horn actually originated in Europe and has been around for quite a while. In the beginning, it had no fingerings and was played by buzzing different notes, which could also be tuned by the moving of the hand inside the bell. Then the Germans invented the valve system, and fingerings were introduced to the horn. Of course, Americans call it the French horn.... Anyway, the French Horn is a unique instrument enjoyed in orchestras all over the world. :)

The key would be Ab for horns, 4 flats in the key signature, so starting on low A, it goes Ab (2 3), Bb (1), C (open), Db (1 2), Eb (2), F (1), G (open), Ab (2 3). The fingerings go along with a single French horn.
