Since the pitch is lowered a half step by shortening the horn a little,

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but there is an article

This is quite an helpful article, but
Why does the writer use concert pitch (using F-Horn) ? This is just
disturbing.
Why does the author say for any given fingering ? The fingering is not
relevant at all as it just changes the length of the sounding wave. The
phenomenon is more or less

Try Bob's column, AudioPyle' in HORN CALL vol. XXI, no. 1, pp. 36-43
Factititious Tones and Hand Stopping.
I am doing a report for a basic acoustics class on hand stopping. It
involves a 1-2 page write up and a five minute presentation. From what I
have read so far it seems as though the hand lowers the harmonic series as
it is inserted by decreasing the number of standing waves. What I do not
Ack, I hope I didn't have dyslexia when I wrote the response. If anyone
wishes to correct me feel free, but that's as I understand it anyways.

Scott,
Then why is it that inserting the hand gradually lowers the pitch? --Carson

You will likely receive an avalanche of responses arguing if the pitch goes up or down
but as you
have correctly observed it does both.
As your hand closes off the bell it effects the sound waves as you mentioned and
lowers the
pitch. This lowered pitch also maintains its relative position in
Based on your responses and what I have read:
Pitch gets lower as hand moves in. Pitch decays exponentially? with hand
opening. Thus as the hand gets very close the pitch goes down faster (this
explains why the shift is so abrupt). So much so that the fundamental is
gone and the 1st harmonic is
The pitch rises when the stopping is complete enough to effectively
shorten the horn to an F# instrument, for an F horn. It raises a Bb
horn more than a half step, and requires a separate stopping valve. I
suspect this effect is why the horn is in F in the first place.
Otherwise, they would
It seems a bit difficult to fill the mouth with helium at many places where
stopping occurs right after a very short pause of just half a measure or
less, like before the last written long held e in the Long Call.
And to Carson: timber timbre a most different things.
To William: the F horn came
