Agreed, Klaus...when I have the opportunity to play the Brahms 2nd (and
everything else), I play from the original parts. However, if I found
myself close to an audition and did not know a piece well in the original
key, and knowing that auditions produce enough nerves without the added
burden, I would play from the part in F.

I have played 2nd in Brahms #2 from such printed part, where everything was
transposed for horn in
F. That took part of the fun out of it. I much rather would have been
presented to the part, as
Brahms wrote it in the score.

they would be looking over your shoulder to see that you are playing from
the original part.

I managed to avoid this throughout my rep exams in my degree, but now
it's a
requested piece of rep for a rather important audition which is very
soon.
I CANNOT get my head around B natural!
Does anybody have any tips to go about sight the initial sight reading of
it? (Bar the obvious listening to it/learning it by heart?)
