The Christmas Horn Spirit - for 8 Horns

[allstar528]

Hey Marc!

I just bought this right now! I am currently sitting 2nd chair in my High School Symphonic Band! My horn section is by far one of the best in the state of Texas. I am going to try to put this together with my fellow horns! All of us always stay after school trying to create horn ensemble pieces and playing for fun. I think this piece will truly be fun for us to play! Thanks man, your are the greatest!

[pilchard96]

You are genuinely the future of horn music at the least, and I think music arrangement and selling as a whole - the idea of separate backing tracks is genius and perfect for practicing. Something I have wanted for many years. Great things coming to you my friend, such genius in arrangement and skill in playing. Bravo.

AWESOME!

[RayLathrophornBA]

Wow that's cheap for such quality. :)

[RayLathrophornBA]

Roughly how much does it cost via US currency?

[Marcpapeghin]

@RayLathrophornBA The pack containing MP3 and full sheet music is at about $13

[DTNSU]

Was the "hint" of Wagner right there at the end on purpose or from your subconscious?

[Marcpapeghin]

@DTNSU Probably both ;) I didn't specifically thought about Wagner when I wrote it but it's definitely the sound I was aiming for !

[Gig103]

Marc, great work. Any chance you would sell this on Amazon instead of via your site and Paypal? Or a Paypal offering in USD so my credit card isn't charge a currency fee?

[Marcpapeghin]

@Gig103 I can send you a paypal invoice in US$ if you'd like !

[dixiedolly12449]

I love being the only horn in my band.

[edude1100]

this is a beautiful piece, the transitions between songs are hard to tell, your listening to one song, before you know it its another, this is amazing, i would buy it but sadly i don't have any moeny, that and im 13 so i cant earn money in any fun ways.

[sammae77]

Just bought this piece!! so excited to see it!!

[kelleyjane07]

gorgeous

[exhornnerd]

How on earth do you get the ensemble and intonation so spot on with multitracking? My gob has never been so smacked! Very fine playing... :-)

[Jetli390]

Available for trumpets? SWEET!

[pedrohperez]

porra manolo

[sammae77]

hello, i am going to buy this peice for our horns for my schools christmas concert, and i was wondering why you didn't put "Hark, the herald angels sing" in this wonderful arrangement of music??

It's just my favorite Christmas song, and i was wondering.

[Marcpapeghin]

@sammae77 Well the truth is it was on my initial list ! But in the end I just couldn't make it work in the medley, musically speaking...so I didn't include it ;)

[frenchhornguy94]

i just recently purchased this arrangement and I have to say i love it in fact my conductor is lettin my symphony which is the mobile symphony youth orchestra. it should be a lot of fun and plenty of time to prepare ...... and Mark  i still hoping you do that Sextet i sent you anɪ e mail about . hope you all buy this music its fantastic

[russelharris]

dude... omg how do you play like that.. im in 9th grade and want to me a famous horn player... help me :(

[LegoPi3]

@russelharris practice. a lot :P

[crudaz]

Comme à son habitude, Marc nous régale par la magie de son cor. Superbe l'idée de nous faire partager toutes ces pièces ultra connues de Noël, mais sous un angle différent.

Bel arrangement qui nous fait apprécier l'art de Marc. Son cor et lui ne font qu'un.

Technique, son, grave, il y a tout pour un beau cadeau.

Merci Marc et bonne Année 2011.

[817Juarez]

Marvelous :D

[bcarl5945]

I absolutely love this arrangement! I bought it in November and have been working on it ever since! Thanks!

[LoveFrenchhorn]

I would love to buy this song so i can listen and maybe buy the piece.....how could i possibly buy the song?? Could u send me a link! Im interested!

[Marcpapeghin]

@LoveFrenchhorn MP3 and sheet music are available at the link right under the video, on my official website !

[imnotgone144]

!!!!!!! We have 8 horns at school!!!!! OMG! Life is great! This is amazing! <3

[maikel371]

i love it very nice done , do you have the john williams tribute already free of rights ??

[bandgeek1194]

this is so incredible-- now I want to learn how to play horn so I could play this!

[HiddenAnkai]

If only I had seven other horn players...lol.

[Marcpapeghin]

@HiddenAnkai There's always the possibility to play any part alone with the backing tracks, as if you were with 7 other players, at home! ;)

[JSCO1846]

@HiddenAnkai

Record yourself playing each part and put it together :D

[seiyaiki]

This gives me goosebumps. Excellent arrangement!

[lilnino93]

we should do a combination, have 8 horns record them selves doing one part, then put it all together like he does all the time, ill call 2nd or 3rd horn =D

[TheMusicmajorman]

@lilnino93 Count me in.

[thewisecookiesheet]

@lilnino93 I'm totally in too. 8D

[lyconthrop]

ok..we all need 7 hornplayers let do this! i think theres 7 of us

[beagle4864]

This is fantastic!! It's very artfully did it, I love it! I only wish I knew 7 horn players.

[martyprod2]

hey please, support this amazing artist.

if you enjoy his music : buy his mp3. marc gave you the hability to hear all his tributes and this one for free here:please, buy his mp3.

if you enjoy the music and you are a horn player , buy the sheet music , the package sold is done for horn player who doesn't have the possibility to play with other horn player, so there is 8 backing tracks to work this song.

if you want his work to be released in the futur, support the artist now !!

thanks for him !

[countumga]

Man, I cannot WAIT until Christmas comes this year. Fantastic arrangement man. :)

[Gig103]

Good for you for getting a store online!

[cockatielsrule1300]

If I played French Horn and knew 7 other people who played it, I would totally buy that sheet music, lol. ^_^

[Heavylight17]

@cockatielsrule1300 Same here. This is very well made and it sounds beautiful.

[ZappaIrl]

That is really good. Well done.

[Deathwing120l]

This is everything Christmas music should be. I truly love what you do with the french horn and really appreciate what you do with it as a fellow horn player.

[TheBig5Brass]

Great job! When are we gonna see some brass ensemble sheet music?

[David0794]

sounds awesome!
