"The
Besson BE701 Compensating Double French Horn combines the
tone quality of an F horn in the middle and low register and
the security of a Bb horn in the high register. The thumb
valve operates both sides of the horn which share tubing,
making it lighter in weight than a traditional double French
Horn"
