Find Warmth and Depth within the Strong Tone of the Yamaha YHR-668NDII F/Bb Double French Horn - Nickel Silver, Detachable Bell

This orchestral French horn is designed for players who prefer the strong sound of a large bell instrument. Characterized by deep, warm tone colors, the 668 features secure note centers and impeccable intonation.


  • Rotary valves and slides that have been hand-lapped are airtight and have smooth action.
  • Articulated key levers have responsive motion.
  • Tapered valves wear for a long time without air leakage.
  • Deep, warm tone colors
  • Secure note centers


Hammered and Annealed Bell

Hammering and annealing are processes so important to the instrument's acoustic characteristics that Yamaha employs computer-controlled equipment to ensure consistently superior sound. Hammering enables bells to have a rich, resonant tone that blends beautifully with other instruments. Annealing is a cooling and heating process that makes it easier to control the acoustics of the instrument.

Excellent Sound in all Registers

The combination of the secure high register, strong projection, and quick attack of the Bb horn with the rich, warm timbre of the F horn make the double horn ideal for most playing situations.
