    I enjoyed this. What kind of horn is that?

      It’s a funny little thing called “pocket trumpet”. It has a thinner sound than the regular trumpet but not as much as you ‘d expect. Closer to a cornet maybe.
      This is not the one DB uses in this song though. It’s just a photo of him I like.
      Thank you!
