imagine hiking through modern sweden , camping for the night and hearing this at midnight, and your swedish friend goes "no..dont go outside..it will take you"
This amazing! Beautiful music! So I have to ask, does anyone here know where you might buy one of these, or a good source on learning how to make one? I mean getting a horn and drilling holes in it is easy, but I'm wondering about hole spacing and how it might affect tuning
I think the placement of the holes doesn't matter... It's their sizes that matter, and decides how much air is let through when not covered by your fingers.
This is an old comment but if you're still interested there are several good videos on yt for it, just search "cow horn flute" you should find it, considering the fingering holes to my knowledge the first hole should be in the balance point of the horn when held upside down the second and third is where it is most comfortable then the tuning to get a clear tone is a matter of expanding the holes until you are happy with the sound basically, you could most likely tune them but going by ear would most likely get you close enough.
@@Markus_Breuss = once that point of balance is found with your middle finger, drill your hole, then place your middle finger over this hole once again, as if about to play. Your index finger falls naturally in place as does your fourth to mark and drill once again. Cut your point end first of course, before you seek the balance point. A Dremel tool is useful for opening out the mouth piece.
How can I get in contact with you? Recently found a horn….perhaps cow. It has a trumpet looking mouthpiece, however there have been no holes graved out. Fellow musicians my sister and I are. While her main instrument is violin she’s spent 6+ years playing trumpet and she’s been unable to get a single sound. Mouthpiece a bit smaller than that of a trumpet. Obviously old, but there is no dust, dirt, or any blockage within the mouthpiece that we can see. Any chance I can send a picture?
No need to read my previous long winded comment. Put simply, is there a way to contact and send in a pic of a horn I found? Website provided on this channel did not have any email. (That I could find). Would love to learn about this instrument I recently acquired. Thanks!!!
I'd love to hear the cow horn as part of a jazz ensemble.
check Art Blakey and the Afro-drum ensemble
@@peterpiskov1165 Karl Seglem : it's a goat horn but it will do I guess!
hehe, Imagine an 11th-century Scandinavian shepherd sitting on the hillside playing this thing...

I bet thus is a very mastrfully crafted cow horn. Despite its primitive origins.
Sounds fantastic.
No its`not.Try out Einar from Norway.
wow! that sounds amazing. from a cow horn with only 3 holes? Incredible! Beautiful!

@@Alkis05 this type has only three holes.
@@NicholasKonradsen What I mean is that he uses the main outblowing hole (I don't know the technical term for that) to change the pitch too.
Shades of Miles........... Beautiful!

i came across a cow's horn the other day, trust me its way, way harder then it looks!
my dad made them growing up...actually it is way easy to play- as long as you have good lungs...
@@chewysplace3542 Well. No.
@Julien F Sounds like a skalmeja (bagpipe without the bag) or something like that.
But it looks hard af
you have to take it of the cow first...
Wow that was so amazing

Impressive (y)
Awesome :)
Holy shit!
Horn notes were also love notes 😂 personal messages
Came here looking for dnd instruments lol
Is he buzzing like trough a trumpet?
how do you calculate the position of the finger holes?
Balance it over your index finger, the point of balance is the first hole made. Then a hole either side of this main point is made.
@@davideddy2672
sounds really nice and easy!
but probably it's more complicated, no?
@@Markus_Breuss Honestly, no!
