It was closer to D than any other key, and I rehearsed the Mozart #1 this
way the night before the performance.  But I began the performance with
some shtick involving cutting the hose roughly in half, to bring the key
up one octave.  So it was about 12 feet long, still in D, but much better
sound, wider spaces between tones, and a lot less resistance.  A 50-ft
hose would probably also be about in D, but hardly practical.  More of a
stuffy tube-a.  And about 6 feet would make high-D-hose.  You could cut
the 25-ft hose in 4 of these to play quartertets.

[Hornlist] Hose "A" Can You See?

2004-08-07 Thread Ray & Sonja Crenshaw

> I found that a standard 25-foot hose is just about in D


What? How so? When I was deciding how to cut my hose (say, shouldn't this be
done by a Rabbi?), I'd heard that a trombone is about 9-feet long, making a
BBb tuba about 18-feet long... so I figured a horn in F must be a little
longer than halfway between those two. If I was right (and since my hose
plays a pretty mean key of F, I was... wasn't I???), how in the world can
25-feet be right for horn in D?

Unless...at 25-feet, the partials are so close together that it plays in all
keys at once!

Puzzled,

Re: [Hornlist] haydn concerto piano reduction

Hello Scott,

the piano reduction for that double concerto is not #out of print since
long#, very sorry, it is available at any time in Edmond Leloirs reduction
from the original score, which is protected under copyright. It is K.100 or
K.099 as full score & the parts are available as well.

Greetings

Shangri-la.

[Hornlist] haydn concerto piano reduction

2004-08-07 Thread Scott Pappal
All:

Some of you may know from postings/discussion from
several months back that I'll be performing the Haydn
(attributed, but we'll call it that for the sake of
convenience) concerto for two horns this fall (with
orchestra.) My fellow soloist and I have met several
times to rehearse and make some artistic decisions
(grace notes, etc.) and we've been using a rehearsal
pianist playing a reduction done by myself. To the
best of our knowledge, only one piano reduction was
ever done, and its now long out of print. My reduction
is very playable and, being a piano player as well, I
tried to keep the part "pianistic." I know that this
concerto has received some recent attention on the
list - I thought I'd offer my reduction to any listers
who might be interested, for perhaps four or five
bucks (Basically, what it will cost me to go buy large
manilla envelopes and pay shipping.) As far as I know,
this work is in public domain, and I'm not violating
any copyright laws; if I'm wrong, I'm sure someone on
the list will set me right! If interested, let me
know.
