[nickwreyford1]

Little tiny slip at the beginning going up to C#.

But this sounded so boss I could care less.

[MisterPOP0]

[iMuzicz]

Horns are the BEST!8:38 <3

[iMuzicz]

Horns are the BEST!

[greenmusicgirl101]

this is so pretty, i just started playing the french horn, it can be frustrating, but very pretty and good scholarship

[fantasynreality]

this was beautifully played. thank you for sharing :)

[Lateontios]

I'd have to admit, horns are my favorite instrument to listen to musically.

[iluvviolin356]

You guys sound about as awesome as the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra's horn section (they rock). Note to James Horner.

[FrenchHornista63]

I played this piece at a music camp a few years back with about 20 high school french horn players. I think you guys did a good job with the piece :)

[KH2fanatic2010]

if that first horn didn't crack that first note..... oh well, who cares!!!!! I LOVED THIS

[CoDJumpMaster]

My instructor plays a 1961 hand made Alexander. He allowed me to play it once and I've been hooked ever since. I am currently using a Holton H179 and I would absolutely LOVE to own an Alex!

[CoDJumpMaster]

Beautifully performed! Well done! I envy you, as I've never had the privilege to play with a group this large.

The french horn is arguably the most difficult instrument to play next to a double-reed instrument. and I quite agree with that, there are just too many things that can cause the horn to go out of tune with the rest of the ensemble/orchestra.

[composerchick1277]

this was utterly amazing..I about died listening to this!!!

[Leif1818]

I just want to say that a horn ensemble of 12 is like the best thing since sliced bread. I play horn, and I don't think "Vienna horns are better..." After all this sounds amazing. I should go to Rutgers for the sole purpose of joining a horn ensemble. Brass ensembles are a thing of the past.

[jijahjiah]

you guys sound absolutely amazing.

beautiful solid sound (:

[flytallerkin]

it was hard but gradual learning kicked in from the transition from tuba to baritone, then to tenor horn, then to french horn, the horn was by far the most dificult.

[MrMrnick38]

french horn composer, where do you get this score?

[griffik85]

It s on Paxman Music Centre website

[6come666]

bello! peccato per lo scrocco iniziale del primo corno solista..!

[sarcasticasian]

omg, this is amazing, i love the french horn. it has such a nice sound.

[bobycorn]

HI, I play French Horn and I would like to get this score, do you have???you would send me by email, please!

Best Regards.

[mike090882]

vienna horns are better...

[1337evan]

well we are NOT vienna horns if you can see that for yourself.

[XavierAJones]

@1337evan nice fry dude, your band is aweome.

[llleeonnn]

@mike090882 vienna horns are too sharp

[amberl33]

very nice! i'm actually working on this right now with the USM horn choir, but only with 18 hourns =)

[xoxturtl3xox]

It's not that hard to figure it out by ear.

[marchbroxmysox]

Pure awesomeness! Good job! I'm a horn player myself. Ever since I started playing the horn, I've wanted to play this. I can't seem to get ahold of the music though. lol

[itslukeomg]

start on an A in the staff and work from there.

there is a C# and an F# and everything else is natural.

A B C#... are the first three notes.. work from there.. i play horn as well. and i play this from ear :]

[BewitchedLiz]

oo im a beginner horn-- been playing for 3 yrs-- and this is how much ive got: A B C# D C# b a b E C# B a F# D E A B C# D C# b a b E C# E F# E A C#.

Could you help me out?

[kleineschutter]

what is the highest note?

and do u standard play Bflat side or F side?

[1337evan]

the highest note in the piece is a written high D above the staff. The solo is repeated twice in the piece, once at FF and the other at MP.

Our school utilizes the B horn a lot more than the F side. We only played F horn on certain notes, unless the horn itself doesnt agree with the tuning. :-P

[extricated1]

@1337evan  i tot it was a D flat?

[1337evan]

@extricated1 nope its a D. There is a Db in the 1st horn part as well.

[suhailaaaaa]

awesome! i'm dying to try this.

[Alkemedis23]

hell yeah me too! its just so damn beautiful

[tominko17]

[cashdragon57]

very good job

[histgbe]

Amy Krueger is far right, back row! Halstead Chidell 21A Z cup, Alex 107 in yellow brass! :-) i am not ashamed, evan. haha

[HywelJamesDowsell]

do u know where i can get the music for this arrangement?

[1337evan]

It's copyrighted so you'd need to buy it off somewhere. I dunno who sells the arrangement though. I'd check all the major sheet music stores. It's on the London Horn Sound CD btw.

[Alkemedis23]

you can get the arrangement for this on the paxman website

[jy9693]

WOW.

[gggg54]

Great performance

[Bobaw00t]

lol could you name the members? some look quite familiar to me..

[1337evan]

I dont want to name names on here since people might not want me to.

[1337evan]

Best part of the performance was 2:55 with the swelling chords. :-)

[CassHern115]

hey, u playing which horn part?

[1337evan]

9th horn. Some of the fun low horn stuff. :-D

[CassHern115]

I see.

U are the one who was playing the melody at 06:42 right

[1337evan]

Yes. It's 2 of us playing it. Me and the guy directly behind me.

[CassHern115]

i see. Anyway what mouthpiece u 2 use?

U 2 seem to have a very round, yet dark sound.

[1337evan]

Well Im using a Halstead chidell 21A Z cup with an AS rim. Its mostly a high horn mouthpiece. I mightve been using the 23A though for this performance. I dont remember. I switch between mouthpieces for different ensembles and blend. Also, this ensemble plays mostly Alexander Horns.

[GadosDavidIsaac]

not the performans

[akruegs629]

yay guys! good job!!!
