Mozart Horn Concerto No 3, 2nd mvnt. Steve Park-Horn

To download an mp3 file of the accompaniment, go to www.steveparkhornmusic.net. This is the lovely and gentle 2nd movement. The background is a cathedral in Europe. 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.

This happens to be my favorite solo; you play so beautifully. One question, how did you get your tone to sound so warm? I've been trying to play with a warmer tone, but I always end up straining and sounding awful. Are there any specific warm ups I should do?

Thank you!

@azulablue Make sure that you are not using a mouthpiece that is too big. The Holton Farkas MDC or Schilke 27 are good choices. Try to play with the center of your lips very relaxed. Keep the opening small and use good air support. Experiment with rolling your lips in. Hopefully this gives you some ideas.

Also, quick question... What arrangement of this do you have? Measure (26 or 27 the part you went Bb D F D Bb F D F Bb) my arrangement has one third line Bb then 7 Bb below the staff... The way you played it was also in another recording of mine so I was wondering why that is.

[ohsteacher]

I have the Schirmer arrangement. The arpeggio is an improvisation that I have been doing for years. I think I hear d Barry Tuckwell do it on a recording many years ago.

Your tone sounds really lovely here... I don't know if it has to do with the cool green screen effects in the back, but it certainly adds some atmosphere, even if it looks a little cheesy.

Awesome 5/5

And another thing: how can I get to the higher notes without tensing up so much?

[JinJayMan]

I've been playing horn for about 3 years now, and i got this assignment in private lessons. I only got the part 0:05 through 0:31 . I'd like to know how to get such a nice tone without tiring out so quickly. Do you have any suggestions?

[Pietje11000]

Een van mijn favorieten muziekstukken. Vooral het tweede deel. Zeer goed gespeeld!

[beccalynnburton]

You use a Clebschstrap right? How does that attach to the horn?

[SeanusMaximusIsMe]

is a mouth piece with a smaller hole better than a larger one? The outer edge is the same but the inner holes are different

[Emmetthartung]

Why Can't u play that part?
