You've had some pretty good advice, I think. I lean a little bit in favor of the Geyer style horns, but you can find some good buys in horns such as the Conn 6D which often costs a bit less simply because demand for it is low. I really recommend that you have your daughter try several horns; and buy it for how it feels and responds to her, and how it sounds.
