[Hornlist] Sioegried Idyll 2nd horn long note
Last night we played the Siegfried Idyll. My second horn didn't manage to play the extrememely long low note at the end in one take. Does anybody? One of my colleagues told me that he had seen a BBC orchestra play this piece and the note was shared between the two horns. Is this the usual way of coping with this, does one develop a set of gills, or take breaths as my second did.

I have done it, and I believe it was Aaron Paul playing second when I was conducting the Berkeley Chamber Orchestra who was also was successful. Actually, it's not that hard. It's not like you have to change notes, or something. I use self-hypnosis in that situation, and the real problems is remembering to stop.

Re: [Hornlist] Siegfried Idyll 2nd horn long note
One more thing, It helps to have a sympathetic conductor who is listening to you, and knows what you can do. This is a good time to rant about incompetent conductors, but we already know all about that.

RE: [Hornlist] Fidelio horns
Fidelio No.9 Aria Abscheulicher, wo eilst Du hin ... - if you dont know this piece if you are a mere Bb-horn player, I wish you much pleasure with this aria. It is THE audition piece for every horn player here. Regarding Siegfried Idyll: why not breaking the long held note into two pieces by breathing up-beat-wise (just before the last beat in a measure. If the second player does not splash in with the note, no problem, but who knows. If the conductor insists, that the note be held, something might go wrong with the 2nd horn, so the conductore can notice the breath. If he cannot notice it, because it is done perfect, make him responsible for every health problem inb the future, personally solely responsible, if he insists for the held note. This works. It is a musical bow, not a deeo diving competition. I know about two Scotsmen doing a diving competition to win 50.- Pounds. both still under water, but dead. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, November 19, 2006 11:51 AM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: [Hornlist] Fidelio horns Very urgently - which is the bit in Fidelio which uses an exposed solo horn trio (quartet?)

RE: [Hornlist] Fidelio horns 2
The Aria no.9 is in E, - and a fingering nightmare for mere Bb-horn-users. Special attention should be kept on the sixtyfouth scale before the fermata. The Adagio goes in 4, while one should insist with the conductor, to conduct sixteenth in the measure before the fermata (the one with the scale), as did Karl Boehm, Sawallisch, Mehta, Kempe etc. If you rehearse this aria, do it together with the first bassoon, which is taking the fourth part of a quartet, do it with the conductor just minutes before the concert. We did it before every performance. It will give you more security - AND more confidence for the (often shitless scared) conductor. Continue after the fermata with slow, but not too slow four. The first half measure in the last measure before the Allegro goes in sixteenth again so to place the triplets clearly. Obey much the sfp makings the pp. The Allegro is con brio in two beats but not a rush, but brilliant, so never to use a thick or loud tone. Obey the dotted eights exactly as they are written. From 5th measure on it is a must to play everything light short. No exaggeration on the ff mark measure ten. A good forte would make it anyway. Take care for the entrance in Measure 20 ( g#, b-nat, b-nat), all in tempo. M.17 requires a strict rhythm for the syncopes. There is the piu lento marking. The entrance in the 4rth measure from there is a bit held back. And again the Tempo I. light exact in rhythm. Tempo holds back the measure before the fermata. Breath fast do the upbeat in tempo like at the beginning of the allegro. The 2nd horn has to keep much attention upon the E-major scale (it is B-natural-major for us reading from the view of the F-player). Do not rush here, and special do not rush when jumping down from the climax the measure before the last fermata. And up we go again with the scales, where all three arew involved be synchronized very well. Keep a bit of power reserved for the last three measures, if you play first horn, so not to break your neck at the high b-naturals. I forgot to tell, that the entrances of all three horns at the beginning of the aria no.9, coming all one after the other with four eights difference, can be in a sound piano, never timid. Try playing it on the F-side mostly (it is 2nd valve mostly) use the Bb-horn as a welcome helping tool. Second horn has a nice octave slure during the 12th measure of the Adagio two nice 32th scales few measures later, the one scale a chromatc one. Insist that the soprano does not behave as one of these towing goats often met. Have done Fidelio 220 times on first horn manytimes on 2nd horn, with the most famous sopranos ever under many famous conductors, about 50times under Karl Boehm on single F Pumpenhorn -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, November 19, 2006 11:51 AM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: [Hornlist] Fidelio horns Very urgently - which is the bit in Fidelio which uses an exposed solo horn trio (quartet?)

Hi Wendell, I feal very happy about that I was given the chance to encourage someone with my story . It took me quite a long time to get convinced that with my former I would find myself , within a short period in the end of the road as a horn player.At that point i was 28 , warried , married and jobless. Atthe time i made the dcision my ambsure was far up the uppere lip.Ihave started my change, and soon enough I had to work in the most owfull jobs ever-like being a kitchen worker in a resturant and such.Shortly after I have accomplished the changeI was accepted to a principal horn position in a chaqmber orchestra and some six years after words I found myself as a first horn in the Israel Camerata - playing quite often as a soloist and a recitalist , and very active almost inevery field of musical life in Israel - from classical to rock music . i do remember moments of despair but I know how to cherish them now - it takes a lot of pressure to turn coal into a diamond. yours, Alon Reuven ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Hornlist] Fidelio horns
Thanks Hans, I play very little opera - the last time I played Fidelio was a concert version about twenty years ago and I can't remember a thing about it except that the conductor lost his score between the rehearsal and performance. It turned out that it wasn't that aria we were playing tonight so we didn't need a third horn (the fixer, working on the instructions of the conductor, didn't know how many horns we needed) But yes, I am only a Bb player anyway! :-) (well, most of the time anyway) Cheers, Lawrence ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
