It sounds really really good! I'm working on Mozart 4 for my jury this semester.
A big comment I'd suggest is a shorter tongue at the beginning of the 3rd movement, to match the style of the orchestra a little bit more. And a little bit more of a consistent airflow.
I think the reason some say the dynamic range is missing is due to the camcorder, not the horn player or orchestra. Most camcorders use AGC (Automatic Gain Control) which automatically adjusts the recording level to normalise it, so everything automatically sounds the same.
Thank You For This...Gift From God, His Musical Talent that is like a blooming rose. He has so many more years to hone his craft - already he is performing miracles...this child does MORE then play notes, he creates music and knows the nuiances of his instrument. "David Nagy 85" apparently is speaking for a place of jealousy
He needs to learn how to feel the music instead of playing it note by note.... i am jealous of him because i cannot afford to buy a french horn... i was really good and could have gone pro
DaRaawk hey who gives a cuss if he is too young..!!! did you know that a five year old composed a piece of music and its now famous? anybody can be a musician, dispite their age! and don't let anybody tell you otherwise!
good player, but a bit young to be a musician .he has amazing skills to improve. i agree with DavidNagy85 time will solve the matters coming from his age. if he continues he'll become a really good horner.
Yes, he is a good horn player, but he has to learn how to play music..how to organize the structures, how to play a melody, how to start a beautiful single note and so on...He learnt the piece well, without thinking aboute it. But it's normal, he's young. The time will solve these problems.
There is two french horn behind in the orchestra. So during the solo has a cut note, behind, the others french horners keep the note... (it's hard to explain, I'm french.. :P)
oh i have the holton 378. and omg i hate the sluring it just messis my tune up i manage to get from a to like a low c but other then that im an ok player
its funny, all horn players seem to struggle with the octave drop around measure 11, from myself, to Jeff, to the great Barry Tuckwell. all recordings I have ever heard do it. great job!!! it sounds amazing. esp the thirty-second note low Bb part near the cadenza!! phenomenal performance! keep it up!!
how old are you jeffrey? you are awesome. just fyi, the comment in spanish is telling you "... You play great, keep it up! CONGRATULATIONS on being so good."
You are amazing! keep up the hard work :)
