Wind instruments which produce sound using lip vibrations are classified as brass. The french horn meets this specification. It produces sound in a fashion similar to other brass instruments such as the Trumpet, Trombone and tuba.

It's a brass, treble clef, F instrument (it's concert Bb scale starts on F). Though it's brass, it can be played in both brass and woodwind groups (i.e. quintet or quartet)
