Jeremy,

I invite you to look at my Recital Duets (1981) - These duets were  
originally composed for English horn and tuba. They are now available  
for all instruments as duets for the same instrument or in any  
combination of instruments. The seven movements range in  
expressiveness from fanfares to love duets in a modal language that  
is based in shifting tonality. Duration: 10:00 $5.00. You can see and  
hear these duets at http://cooppress.hostrack.net and click on "horn  
music".

I can't tell you how hurt I am that my horn duets have not been mentioned in 
the lists that have been offered so far.  (Well, I could tell you, but you 
wouldn't take me seriously.)  My six horn duets were composed originally for 
natural horns in various keys, but there is also an edition for modern horns 
in F.  Philip Farkas liked them -- so what can I say?


If anybody is interested, write to me off-list.

One must remember that the double bass is a transposing instrument. 
The sounding pitch is an octave lower than the written pitch.

Re: [Hornlist] Duets

Hey-

I think that every hornist should own both the O. Franz duetts (there
are two books) and at least some of the 6 Otto Niccoli duets.   The
Niccoli duets are excellent 3 movement works, all about 20 pages long.
 They are hard enough to be interesting and challenging, but also easy
enough for a very good non-pro to sightread, at least under tempo at
first.  
I don't know if the O. Franz set are all original compositions or
arrangements, some of them say Bach at the top and some don't.
regardless they are also excellent, and there are so many you can flip
to a random page and play away.  I read a few with my prof. every week
in my lesson.

Both of these can be found at Robert King music online very easily, and
probably lots of other places...

Happy Practicing,

Hans - read Jeremy's message again - he said "duets" - he didn't say 
"horn duets".


But ok - I would have answered the same anyway.  And I didn't mean  
transcriptions - I meant the real thing, out of the geige store; violin 
duets composed for two violins.  Or for two brave hornists.


That reminds me - I also recently stumbled on a very pleasant CD of 
duets for double bass and

1) viola, by Karl Ditters von Dittersdorf
2) bassoon, by Benoit Guillement
3) cello, by Bernhard Romberg
played by members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

These would also be good fun for horns - sometimes folks here ask, what 
about low horn practice.  These are nice little cupcakes for two.


Cheers,
David

[Hornlist] Nichol's knuckles

2007-02-18 Thread HornCabbage
David G wrote

"(Red Nichol's) father believed that practice
makes perfect and made Red practice the cornet for at least an hour
before breakfast.  He rewarded mistakes with a crack on the knuckles. 
Red's precision, tone, and mastery of his instrument were developed
early because of his father's strict discipline."

Such pedagogical techniques have likely long fallen into disuse; yet
they equally likely helped to produce this fine musician, land him
immortality in music history, and left us with a great musical legacy. 
In retrospect, was Red better or worse off for his treatment?  Are there
any moms or dads here who would like to weigh in on unusual teaching
techniques that have paid off for their youngsters?  Is the world
missing some excellent musicians because dad was too timid to whack his
little prodigy?

On the detail level, if you are going to crack knuckles, would it make
more musical sense for cornet and horn dads to target the right hand?


If your students have learned their lessons properly, and if they have
seriously absorbed the significance of cracking knuckles, then eventually 
they spontaneously crack their own knuckles after making a mistake, or
even in advance of making the mistake.   This is why I enjoy cracking my 
knuckles during the long boring bit before the horn solo in Tchaik V.   
Really, David, there's no point in limiting yourself to one hand - you can 
crack one hundred percent more if you use both hands.   

Gotta go,

[Hornlist] Nichol's knuckles

2007-02-18 Thread David Goldberg
This is slightly NHR, as it concerns a teaching technique that worked 
for a cornet player, but it might work just as well for horn players.


I recently stumbled on the CD "Radio Transcriptions", which is a 
collection of the playing of Red Nichols and his Five Pennies.  The 
pieces were broadcast on the radio in 1929-1930.  For those of you not 
in the know, Red Nichols and his Five Pennies were a popular and 
innovative jazz band at that time; also they are the protagonist in the 
1959 movie "The Five Pennies", starring Danny Kaye, Barbara Bel Geddes, 
and Louis Armstrong.  Must see - you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll hear 
great music.


However, what caught my eye was part of Red's biography from the blurb 
inside the CD case.  Red's father was a professional musician, teacher, 
conductor, and a professor of music.  "His father believed that practice 
makes perfect and made Red practice the cornet for at least an hour 
before breakfast.  He rewarded mistakes with a crack on the knuckles.  
Red's precision, tone, and mastery of his instrument were developed 
early because of his father's strict discipline."

little prodigy?


On the detail level, if you are going to crack knuckles, would it make 
more musical sense for cornet and horn dads to target the right hand?


( I ascribe to none of the above, I ask questions only; do not try this 
at home; your mileage may vary)
