does that make the tarogato and saxophone a horn?
And the Oboe as well, as it has a pure conical bore. Oboists never call their instrument a horn though as that would sound silly.
And the recorder has a reverse conical bore, that is , it\'s larger at the top end than the lower end.
As for the Saxophone and the Tarogato, they would certainly pass off as being a kind of woodwind \'horn\' as they both have very pronounced conical bores.
As for the Clarinet however, to call it a horn is completely illogical because of its basic cylindrical bore. I think the Jazz musicians started this nonsense.
The only true Horns are the \'Saxhorn\' group of brass instruments. which include the Bb Cornet / Eb Alto (\'Tenor Horn\') / and Be Tenor (\'Baritone Horn\') which have a narrow conical bore.
And the Tuba group which includes the Bb Flugal Horn/ Bb Euphonium (Tenor Tuba) / Eb Bass Tuba / Bbb Contrabass Tuba. These have a wide conical bore and are regarded as the true Saxhorns.
And finally of course the \"French \' horn in F / Bb. which is actually cylindrical through some of it\'s length and then pure conical the rest of the way.
