Re: [Hornlist] Beethoven's Ninth
Having the first horn play the fourth horn solo in Beethoven's 9th is not uncommon, but I don't think that it is necessarily standard operating procedure. Sometimes the conductor doesn't have the confidence in the fourth horn player, for no good reason.

We're playing Beethoven's Ninth in our community orchestra, and the conductor has asked the first horn player to play the fourth horn solo, stating that's standard operating procedure in all the big orchestras.

Does anyone know where the Holton Regency and Solist models fit in? I played them at a local dealer, and they didn't seen to know much about them. I am thinking they are a 378 with a rose-brass bell, but they are not listed on the Lebanc web site. Generally, they seem to be pretty good horns.

Re: [Hornlist] "Gymnopedies," arr. by Debussy
The West Suburban Chamber Orchestra (Chicago) performed Gymnopedies a couple of months ago. We played them exactly as marked. No.1 muted all the way through, and in No.2, 1st was open, 2nd was stopped. We were questioned by our conductor the first reading, and after a discussion with him during break, he agreed with us. It worked for us. Phil Jacobs In a message dated 01/26/07 09:46:38 Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hello. I've been off-list for a few months, so please excuse me if this has been addressed recently. My community orchestra is preparing to perform two of Satie's Gymnopedies, as orchestrated by Debussy, and there is some confusion within the horn section (and on the part of the conductor) as to Debussy's intentions. The sheet music has Horns I & II combined on a single page and Horns III and IV on another page. At the beginning of No. 1, the parts are marked "sourdines," with no subsequent marking. We all assume that we are to be muted for the entire movement, which seems appropriate for the style of the music. The confusion arises in No. 2. There is no reference to "sourdines" in the printed parts. There are a couple of spots where there are four consecutive accented dotted half-notes to be played in unison by both parts on the sheet. These are marked "bouche," with the additional notation of "2o." I believe the intent is for the second horn only to play stopped with a bell tone effect. If this is the case, should the first horn play the unison open? Additionally, should the other passages in this movement be muted or open? The conductor seems to think it should all be muted, and we will of course do it his way if he insists. If anyone has played this arrangement, I would be interested to know how your section handled this issue. I would also appreciate any other authoritative input from the experts on this list.

So, when I lived in NYC in the middle 1980's it seemed that everyone there used three horns. They were the Conn 8D (L, M and N series, only, it seemed), Paxman and Lewis. Why do I seemingly NEVER hear about Lewis horns anymore? Is it because I am no longer in NYC or is it because these instruments are not currently in vogue, or what? Did they suddenly become mediocre or did he go out of business? Or did "something better" just come along over the years. I just never see or hear about them anymore and was wondering why this was.
