For vocalizing into the horn with horn sound, can a specific vowel be vocalized? E.g. is it possible to play a low C, then vocalize E a major 10th above on an A vowel moving to an O vowel?

The sympathetic reverberations are particular amazing! I am wondering if there are any particular pitches (played by the horn into the piano) which create the greatest resonance? I am interested in using this extended technique in a piece I am writing currently.

Typically those are lower fundamental notes with more overtones above. That would vibrate multiple different tones. Sound projection is important.

@@kangyiflute Thanks! That makes a lot of sense from an acoustic perspective!

7:56 please never do this again. You are damaging the instrument in more ways than you can imagine

Thanks for the tip.
