High in the Swiss Alps many years ago, there lived a lonely shepherd boy who longed for a friend to share his evenings. One night he saw three old men, each holding a glass.

The first old man said: “Drink this liquid and you shall be victorious in battle.”

The second old man said: “Drink this liquid and you shall have countless riches.”

The last old man said: “I offer you the happiness of music----- the horn(號角).”

The boy chose the third glass, The next day, he came upon a great horn, ten feet in length, When he put his lips to it, a beautiful melody(旋律) floated across the valley. He had found a friend.

So goes the legend(傳說) of the horn, First known in the ninth century, the horn was used by herdsmen(牧人) to call cattle, for its deep tones echoed(發(fā)出回聲) across the mountainsides. Even today, on a quiet summer evening, its music can be heard floating among the peaks(山頂).
