Lead section edit

This article needs a lead section; the content of the article refers to the idea of a "flourish of horn music", and the alternate definitions either belong on Wiktionary or in separate articles linked from the disambiguation page. Pnswmr (talk) 22:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Music example edit

I don't think the music example chosen as an illustration ("Over the Northern Mountains" by Mattias Westlund) qualifies as a fanfare. In a typical fanfare the melody is carried by trumpets. This fantasy piece has a whole virtual symphony orchestra. Even disregarding the instrumentation, it does not have the feel of a fanfare.  --Lambiam 08:26, 2 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I agree. It should be something like this: http://www.freesound.org/people/neonaeon/sounds/49477/ . Free to use with attribution.195.188.180.1 (talk) 14:31, 10 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
