    We must remember that the French horn is the only brass instrument that is included in the standard brass quintet AND woodwind quintet!

        The article makes no mention of alto/tenor horns in Hispanic banda music. I will try to find a better example, but this will do for now.

          Thanks for adding this to the discussion, Mike. I love the way that different brass instruments, including baritones and euphoniums as well, show up in banda music.
