[@PaulKulev]

How did u do

[@PhilE.Cheesesteak]

@PaulKulevi am also curious

[@paddingtonjohnston8537]

i just started learning this. hardest thing i’ve played next to mozart lol

[@PaulKulev]

@paddingtonjohnston8537 honestly it's not that hard considering it's the hardest ranked song out there. It's surprisingly, easy with that title it should be more difficult

[@paddingtonjohnston8537]

@PaulKulev honestly yes that is true. only thing is, i have to polish my lip trills

[@ЕвгенийПлаксин-х7д]

Лучшее исполнение этого произведения. В смысле правильности темпов,использования звуковой палитры валторны, штрихов, артикуояции.Тягучее легато, острое стакатто, по форме всё очень гармонично. Спасибо Андрею Евгеньевичу Глухову, за это потрясающее исполнение!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

I play French horn and I am just imagining how painful this is to play because we have the smallest mouthpiece out of all of the brass instruments which makes it easier to play higher notes but at a cost...

[@deadstar4955]

Trumpet mouthpiece is shallower though, french horn mouthpiece actually has more space inside of it than a trumpet one does

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Horn mouthpieces do have narrow rims, but a greater inner width (and hence a greater “chop surface”) being used in most cases compared to trumpet mouthpieces. Typical trumpet mouthpiece inner diameter: 16-17mm Typical horn mouthpiece inner diameter: 17-18mm if you’re using basically anything other than a Farkas MDC.

Играет Глухов ?

[@orangecloudsonanindigoblue9786]

Exactly

[@kyle9718-f9c]

Is it bad that i want to do this for solo and ensemble while still in high school?

[@paddingtonjohnston8537]

not at all. i would ask yourself, can you do lip trills? if not, start practicing them today (tons of videos online from professionals). the piece sounds harder in many parts than it is in my opinion. if you’re serious about doing it for solo and ensemble, start today with slow reading and go from there. of course, if your solo and ensemble date is soon like in a matter of weeks, i wouldn’t try to rush the learning process. sincerely, a college student studying horn performance 📯

[@paddingtonjohnston8537]

i should note, i’m not sure which grade you’re in, but practice makes perfect

[@RLBigBoyGW]

Yeah I’m thinking about it too and I have the same feeling

[@logancarmichael2639]

fun fact En Forêt means In forest in English En Forêt is French which is ironic because this was written for FRENCH horn

[@AndewMole]

it's not ironic, Bozza was French while the French horn is not(*)
