How to Blow a War Horn

These are functional instruments and do require a technique — it's not quite like blowing a trumpet, but once you get it, the sound is extraordinary. I'll be posting a YouTube tutorial shortly on how to get the best sound from yours.

A Brief History

Horns have been used as signalling instruments across ancient cultures for thousands of years — from battlefield commands to hunting calls. The modern bugle is a direct descendant. Viking war horns were used to rally warriors, signal attacks, and communicate across the chaos of battle. When you sound this horn, you're echoing that tradition.
