Re: [Hornlist] Strauss Theme and Variations
I personally only have one recording of Franz Strauss's Theme and Variations. John Ericson is performing (He's the Horn professor at Arizona State). The recording is titled "Les Adieuxs" and features all five of Strauss's solo works that were published during his lifetime (According to the liner notes, the rest were not published for a good reason!). Here's some more information: http://www.public.asu.edu/~jqerics/Les_Adieux.htm . It is available on the Summit label. Hope this helps! I don't know of any other recordings, but this one is pretty good. Anna "Some bridges are interesting . . . Some ain't . . . This one ain't." -London Boat Tour Guide - Do you Yahoo!?

Re: [Hornlist] Strauss Theme and Variations
My horn teacher, Janine Gaboury-Sly, recently performed the Richard Strauss Theme and Variations. Awesome piece. Does anyone here know about it? I have yet to meet anyone that knows about it, and the same goes for her. On 21 nov. 04, at 20:42, Anna Henry wrote: I personally only have one recording of Franz Strauss's Theme and Variations.

Re: [Hornlist] Strauss Theme and Variations
I somehow bought that piece more or less on accident and I think I have a recording on my computer somewhere. My buddy did it on his senior recital last year and prefaced it by telling the audience it is what _I_ would call "sleezy".

RE: [Hornlist] Strauss Theme and Variations
This piece, labelled op.17 by the 14-year old Richard Strauss is also labelled by him as "not for human lungs & lips". It has some passages in the last part, he obviously remembered when writing his 2nd concerto sixty three years later. The piece has an original version, still unpublished (he did not want to get it published ever), and the 2nd version, which existed in a professional Viennese copyists hand writings, the composer dedicate to Prof.Karl Stiegler, I think on the occasion of his (R.Strauss) 60th birthday, when Karl Stiegler & his philharmonic colleagues played a serenade to him. I passed out (free) plenty copies of this version, as I owned the original. The Strauss family did not oppose to that, but officially respected the composers will not to publish it. This piece is quite challenging. But why do so many horn players hunt for pieces by such prominent composers, while we have a multitude of pieces by less known composers or fellow horn players composers through all musical styles ? These pieces deserve more attention even there are few samples to hear them before studying or even buing them. But there is everything written in the parts, how & where to breath, accents, tenuto, slurs, crescendo etc. All tempi are given, interpretation advice is given by the musical text. One has to read & understand it. There are not so many different Italian terms to learn. === -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Morgan Sent: Monday, November 22, 2004 3:04 AM To: The Horn List Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Strauss Theme and Variations My horn teacher, Janine Gaboury-Sly, recently performed the Richard Strauss Theme and Variations.
