[Hornlist] Freiburg Baroque Orchestra

2004-07-13 Thread Cathryn Cummings
Does anyone know who the awesome horn players in the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra are? I just bought a DVD of them playing Brandenburg 1 & it's really incredible. Unfortunately, the horn players are not listed anywhere :( Thanks, Cathryn Cummings ___

There's a famous story which was doing the rounds when I was a student (I'm sure Paul can fill out the details and correct the exaggerations) regarding a very famous trumpet player who was brought in to play "The Trumpet Shall Sound" in an amateur performance of "The Messiah". At the end of

One of the most amusing editions is the one arranged by Sir Eugene Goosens and recorded by Sir Thomas Beeecham. It uses a large modern orchestra. I remember rolling around the floor in laughter when I noticed a cymbal roll in one of the recitatives! In spite of the outrageous (by current standards

Hi Hans, I got a hold of a PDF of the score, and maybe in your universe it's not unusual, but anything with that many high Ds in it is unusual for me! Very few orchestral or opera pieces go that high for that long. Sorry I got the number wrong before, I think the other one I played was 89, not

If you see the part the first time at the just one (perhaps) rehearsal, you can make it, if your embouchure is right & if you bring a descant horn. There are only one flat & one courtesy natural each plus two sharps. The text is mainly of (more or less) scales written as C-major scales for horn in
