A Tenor horn is NOT an Alto Horn. The Alto Horn is in F or Es, Tenor Horn in C or B. Both are Saxhorns anyway, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saxhorn or https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%BCgelhorn. --Ordercrazy (talk) 11:26, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your point out. I've reflected these on category (except for the keys, due to lack of my reliable sources...), and added {{See also category}} to Tenor horns and Tenorhorns. I'm grad if you kindly edit this category, possibly with reliable sources. --Clusternote (talk) 16:48, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
P.S.: In my eyes, "Tenor horn" seems often called as almost same instrument (possibly except for keys) as "Alto horn", and Tenorhorn in Germany seems completely other instrument. Do you think about it ? --Clusternote (talk) 17:12, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly. "Alto horn" (in E flat) is the same as "Tenor horn", or "Althorn" in Germany. The German "Tenorhorn" in B flat is a different instrument and can be compared to a "Baritone horn" in B flat, although it is usually built in an oval form. And even better, in Germany an instrument named "Bariton" exists, also in B flat, but with a wider bore comparable to an "Euphonium". All of them are saxhorns. In my opinion this category and the category "Alto horns" should be merged. --Samiclaus (talk) 13:50, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
