You can make a mixture of water and mild soap like you would make so a 5 year old could blow bubbles outside in the wind. Put this in a spray bottle and spray it on the joints to make them wet with soapy mixture. Have someone play the horn and see what you are getting (bubbles will form from just playing if it is a bad leak. If you need more pressure stuff a towel or blanket or a rubber ball in a plastic garbage bag (a rubber ball is hard to get out if you just stuff it in there) and then just have someone blow in the horn.
