Hindemith Horn Sonata, Steve Park, Horn

To download an mp3 file of the accompaniment, go to www.steveparkhornmusic.net. This is a great piece for a good high school or college player. You need a really good accompanist. If you want an mp3 of my accompaniment, let me know. Subscribe! I will be adding more solos on a regular basis. I teach horn at a University and my goal is to create a video library of some of the best horn solos for my students and others. Also let me know if there is something you would like me to record.

do you teach music or just technique? because playing with a computer is not the best to develop a musical personality.. i dont understand..

anyway..congrats for your technique but search for a pianist and play music...

[ohsteacher]

@kpshf86 I recognize that a computer accompaniment is not ideal. But it would not be fair ta ask a really good pianist to spend hours practicing these accompaniments just to record with me. And I can't afford to pay what it would cost. Also, a side benefit of my creating the computer accompaniments is that I can make them available to those who want to use them to help with practice. I send out many accompaniments each week to horn students all over the world who request them.

Are you playing these from SmartMusic?

[ohsteacher]

No. I create my own accompaniments using a program like Finale' called Musicator.

This kid (kpshf) obviously missed the point Steve. Thanks for doing this. It's a great reference for your students, and it's remarkably generous of you to avail it to the general public.

Wow! This is great! I really hope to play this for my Solo & Ensemble competition next year. I really hope I can find a good enough accompanist. :-)

@ohsteacher Hi Mr Park,

I am the father of a 10 year old boy who is about to start preparing the Hindemith. Wouldit be possible to get hold of the accompaniment?

Your renditions have been very helpful to him

Thanks

[cjfrenchmom]

I would appreciate having the Hindemith sonata accompaniment to help with my practicing. What do I do to get it? Very generous of you to make it available. I enjoy your video posts a lot.

[Girfume]

Would you please send me the accompaniment if you don't mind? I think I'd like to use it for a performance for my Freshman Foundations art class at Alfred University. If you would like to know more about what I'm doing, you should message me because I could talk about it all day. Really though, I would love to use the accompaniment if I can.

[wagnerortizg]

Very beatiful! You are great! I like so much your music and videos. See my Sonata for horn, I will be very happy. If you like, I can send sheets. Thanks!

Where did you get the thing that goes over your hand? I have one for my horn but it doesn't go over my hand its just on the horn

@kpshf86 generally I take comments on youtube with a grain of salt....but that was an incredibly rude comment. things like that are better left unsaid.

[Alexgrl247]

@kfallon318 i agree with you. kpshf was off the mark. i played at state with a midi file for my 1st mvt of the hindemith concerto (not sonata like on this pg, i know) and played the 2nd mvt unaccompanied; i received one of the only gold medals of the day. so computer, disc, midi, etc. all work great and are great for practice! so thank you for sharing!

I'm a music Minor and I play French Horn. I always watch your vids on how to play certain pieces and it helps a lot. I was just assigned the Hindemith piece and I'm struggling through it lol... my horn professor said I needed to experiment with different kinds of repertoire because I like to play more melodic pieces. Anyways, your videos are a big help :)!
