Naturtöne in höchster Brillanz Bis heute ist das Waldhornkonzert Nr. 1 von Richard Strauss eines der Repertoirewerke der Hornvirtuosen. Für das Waldhorn, also einem ventillosen Vorgänger des modernen Instruments komponiert, bietet es dem Solisten zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, seine musikalische und technische Brillanz unter Beweis zu stellen. Als Quellen für die vorliegende Neuausgabe wurden Autograf und Erstausgabe der Klavierfassung (gedruckt 1884 bei Aibl, Nr. 2540d) verwendet, weiters der Erstdruck der Partitur (UE 1592), die Erstausgabe der Hornstimme (Aibl Nr. 2540c) und der Orchesterstimmen (Aibl Nr. 2540b), sowie die bisher bei Universal Edition erschienenen Ausgaben.

Mozart composed his Rondo In E-Flat Major for Horn and Orchestra on 21 March 1781 just five days after his move from Munich to Vienna. The Rondo was most likely intended as a final movement of what would have been Mozart's first Horn concerto.

Par STRAUSS RICHARD. Avec son premier concerto pour cor, et étant à peine âgé de 18 ans, Richard Strauss accomplit un coup de génie ravissant. Jusqu'à nos jours, ce concerto est apprécié dans le monde entier par les cornistes (et par d'autres), faisant partie, aux côtés des chefs-d'oeuvre de Mozart, des pièces de répertoire incontournables à l'instrument. Peter Damm, ancien cor solo de l'orchestre de la Sächsische Staatskapelle de Dresde et soliste de renommée mondiale, ne s'est pas contenté de jouer lui-même en public ce concerto plus de 170 fois, mais il a en outre présenté et publié les résultats fondamentaux de ses investigations concernant la genèse de ce concerto. Son édition Urtext prenden considération toutes les sources conservées et peut ainsi être considérée comme une édition de référence. Pour l'étude de la pièce ainsi que pour les auditions, la réduction pour piano réalisée par Johannes Umbreit et particulièrement bien jouable, s'avère d'une grande aide.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 1 in D major KV412/514 was written in 1791. The work is in two movements: I. Allegro II. Rondo. Although numbered first this wasactually the last of the composer’s four horn concerti to be completed. Compared to the other three concertos it is shorter in duration (two movements rather than three) and is much simpler in regard to both range andtechnique.This publication has been edited by John Alley and Timothy Jones for Grade 7-8 Horn in F.

Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's horn concertos: the Mozart expert Henrik Wiese edits the central work genre of Viennese classicism according to the current status of international Mozart research. Mozart wrote the Horn Concerto K. 417 - like the other works of this genre as well - for his horn-playing friend Joseph Leutgeb. The jokes which the composer made at Leutgeb's expense are wellknown. For example, he called the dedicatee a 'donkey” in the autograph, and, as Henrik Wiese evidences in his preface, Mozart also occasionally enjoyed a bit of tomfoolery with the soloist in the musical text as well. Otherwise the editor's task was anything but amusing. The main source - the autograph score - is incomplete: missing are the close of Movement I as well as the entire slow middle movement. For these two sections, Wiese used a copy of the score from the archive of the publisher Johann André. The unusual circumstance that Mozart generally left the horn part almost unmarked recurs in the Concerto K. 417 and was deliberately maintained in the Urtext edition./ Répertoire / Violon 1 (Partie Séparée)

German baroque composer Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767) was a self-taught multi-instrumentalist becoming a composer against his family's wishes. However his musical career saw him hold important positions and to this day he remains a major composer. His sublime Concerto is superbly arranged here for Horn Quartet Trumpet Quartet or Clarinet Quartet by Robert King. King's arrangement of the Concerto for Horn Trumpet or Clarinet Quartet includes all three movements; 1) Adagio and Allegro 2) Grave and 3) Allegro. For all Horn Trumpet and Clarinet Quartets King's rearrangement ofTelemann's popular Concerto makes works by the popular composer more accessible and versatile.

The Bohuslav Martinu Complete Edition III/1/5. Par MARTINU BOHUSLAV. “Incarnation” (1956), Bohuslav Martinu’s fourth piano concerto, follows an atypical two-movement structure. It was composed for Martinu’s friend Rudolf Firkušný, who played from a copy of the autograph until 1970, when the composition was first put into print. The next work, “Concerto in B flat major for Piano and Orchestra”, known under the name “Fantasia Concertante”, was to be Martinu’s very last concert work. The concerto in three movements, composed at the request of Swiss pianist Margrit Weber, is quite different from the previous work in terms of its compositional means. In this case, Martinu strongly influenced the edition of the work. The present volume of the Complete Edition of works by Bohuslav Martinu is based mainly on contemporary copies containing the composer’s own modifications. The edition presents numerous new findings about the genesis of both works./ Recueil / Orchestre
