Berliner Philharmoniker Master Class - Horn

[MrGuialbuquerque]

This piece of Mendelssohn for horn is so beautiful.



[marghe90able]

although he is an excellent horn player, I find that a few notes, like the central B, are a little bit sharp

b-e-a-utiful :D

[tubadavid123]

Will there be a tuba master class?

[araujomateus]

Mendelssohn wrote the Overture for Midsummer's Night Dream (op.21) at 17 indeed, but all other incidental music including this Nocturne (op.61) some 16 years later ; ) ...

@brettbw1 I believe it´s an Alexander 103.

[shib340]

@brettbw1 It's a nickle Alexander 103. Traditionally it's made of yellow brass, but I guess his embouchure or preferences prefer the sound of a nickle alloy.

[delewaldhorn]

@brettbw1 dear Brett! The horn is yellow brass. I had it silver plated instead of laquered, because it wears more evenly,lasts longer and looks better. I think plating has less effect on the sound than laquer because it is a much thinner coating! SJ

This excerpt will really show any intonation issues a player may have... played perfectly of course here. Very impressive.

[jeangosset]

put a bass trombone out!!!!

[Haeronthegreat]

Don't agree about the breathing - the melody always has an anacrusis, so I think breathing before that is the only way.

[AWiddit]
