[Hornlist] two horns and strings?
I've been asked by a conductor to find?a piece for 2 horns and strings (no woodwinds, no other brass, no chorus) to open up a holiday choral concert in December.? Percussion and keyboard?are available if needed.? Preferably 10 minutes or under and maybe somewhat overture-ish/festive in character.? Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks in advance. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Hornlist] two horns and strings?
If a baroque feel is appropriate, possibly a movement from one of the Telemann double horn concertos or maybe a Handel operatic overture (March from Scipio for example is just 2 horns, 2 oboes and strings, but the oboes double the fiddle parts and tha parts are easily available) I'm sure there must be some more modern stuff but off hand I can't think of anything.

Wouldn’t at least one of the two Vivaldi concertos fit this set-up?

From: Jeremy Cucco [EMAIL PROTECTED] Beethoven Sextet. Nuff said. :) Not sure how well this would work with a string _orchestra_. The sextet is scored more as a chamber piece. An alternative, with the program and the right audience, would be to grab one of the outer movements from K.522. The audience might or might not get it, but the piece works either way. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

A movement from an early Haydn symphony might work. I used to play number 18 with a string qurtet on the streets in San Francisco. The oboe parts merely double the strings.

Mozart's Musical Joke K.522is sort of festive. The parts ought to be
available for free download from somewhere in cyberspace.
There is also the lovely:
http://imslp.org/wiki/Image:Mozart_-_Divertimento_No.15_K.287.pdf
but this is the score only, not instrument parts. The horns are not
soloists as in a double horn concerto, but the parts in their supporting
roles are prominent and not trivial - not your usual drone to keep the
strings in tune.
