Frippery No 8 "Barbershop" Horn Quartet, Steve Park, Horn

It's a Frippery!!! What else can I say? They are fun to listen to and fun to play. (it rhymes) Subscribe! I will be adding more solos on a regular basis. I teach horn at a University and my goal is to create a video library of some of the best horn solos for my students and others. Also let me know if there is something you would like me to record. Check out my website at www.steveparkhornmusic.net.

I video taped myself conducting the whole thing from the score. Then I loaded it on to my laptop and watched it while I recorded each of the parts. It was the only way I could think of to keep it all together. And it worked!!! If you watch my eyes, you can see me going back and forth between the music and the video. Thanks for watching ;-)

[@CopShowGuy]

We are often our own best conductor.

[@Nixonfan2011]

I'm a tubist, and yet after watching this...I wanna play my french horn again. You Sir are amazing

[@TheShannonigins]

Oh my the memories are coming back! I played 2nd in this quartet during high school. 13 years later I still remember the fights we had learning to play this and the how awesome it was scoring max points at competition. If you're a horn player, I highly recommend doing this! Even just for fun!

[@timpapenbrock4494]

Steve Park, you were so far ahead of the rest of the world with multi track videos, and still the best!!

[@EQWranglers]

I just had the pleasure of playing this piece. My high school band toured Russia and played this 3 times. We had 3 horns and a Euphonium who played the 4th horn part. It was pretty awesome.

[@dianawolf894]

#8 was my favorite teaching tool

[@AndrewYoblinski]

Horns tuning....pretty accurate.

[@mariposawell6313]

Played fourth part in high school for solo and ensemble. So much fun! We would watch this video over and over again to help us learn it.

[@Mrdianalynn]

With all due respect, Fripperies like this one, are really great teaching tools and alot of fun for all age levels capable, not just high school and college.

[@johnmarsh3573]

My man Steve park 😂

[@redda25]

Omg!!! Awsome!!! Lol the French horn is back!!!!

[@josephlovinsky8307]

This is one of my all time favorite KZbin videos Thank you Steve. You do great work!

[@Stuthehorner]

Mr Park you are a hero!!! I have bought this music and it is soo fun to play, Thanks soo much!! Could you possibly record fripperies 5, 6 or 7?? If you could that would be fantastic!!

[@notcool98]

I loved it. I love quartets. How much easier it must be to tune to yourself, and the same horn than another horn player with his/her own ear and instrument.

[@CrystalCountess]

This just lovely. The idea is fun, but the music is lovely. What a nice arrangement. Well done.

[@ohsteacher]

Thanks - see my comments above for how I lined this one up.

[@XPCREEPER]

how do you get such good syncronization

[@FASD330]

I simply love your videos, they're so much fun to watch and listen! I wish I could had that much fun when I'm playing horn, anyway, you awesome! :D

[@kevingarnett722]

Lovely!! your style is keep changing!! this is great!!

[@fpoasec]

[@orquestralhymns]

[@AshrafRezkmusic]

Awesomeness :')!!!

[@SuperAshCash]

Wow, you are amazing! I play the Bari and alto sax and i am now playuing the French Horn and i hope ill sound like you one day!

[@HappyMelonCraft]

I chose to do a quartet with my friends this year but sadly my teacher didn't let us play this because two of the quartet members are freshmen and may have trouble.... It didn't look too hard though :( Now we are playing In the Country by Pottag.... I was wondering if you could play it so we can have a recording to kinda base it on :) PLEASE AND THANK YOU

[@ryanmurray5124]

Happy Melon im playing this in 7 th grade lmao

[@Charliearo1196]

i will be there one day

[@jamesmccobb970]

I wonder if I could play this with you over the internet.

[@alvimbuenodasilva9622]

Parabéns ficou muito top

[@BonoEtMalo]

The first four horns in Wind Ensemble (1st band) at my high school are playing this for solo and ensemble. I'm Horn 4. Can't wait :D I'm also the same guy who asked you for the Morceau de Concert mp3 and got a 1c, if you remember me.

[@jeremiahmckenzie1459]

Do you hav3 a download for the actual music? I hear your amazing recordings and played this one my freshman year (played second horn!!!!) and want to bring back this wonderful song before I graduate and go to OU for music ed!!!!! Please and thank you!!!!

[@crazyweathergirl]

you need to do number 4!! my quartet did that one last year. it's really pretty!

[@cumanecita]

Hello Sir, can you tell me what program do you use to make these videos? you do a great job!! both with the videos and with your playing :))))

[@Nkuilo890]

This is awesome! Could you tell me where I can get the sheet music for this?

[@WiccarB]

Meu amigo me ensina a mixar 4 videos de uma só vez, com que software fez isto? Muito criativo, parabéns...

[@940DarkMuffin]

Where did you find the music for all of the fripperies you played? I've looked everywhere and I can't find it. It's something I've been wanting to play for a long time, but now I can't find the music to even purchase the sheet music.

[@meyer537]

Glass Bead Game and Valse Triste by Gliere would be awesome to hear!!!

[@ohsteacher]

Actually - the explanation is somewhere below now.

[@dianawolf6875]

In tune w self over some chords!

[@whateverfin]

I think your next endeavor should be Tcherepnin's "6 Quartets for 4 horns" (Sechs Quartette für vier Hörner in F). It's probably the most influential horn repertoire to me. It's a fantastic piece.

[@Kdj1996]

Trombone quartet I'm in at school is playing this. I'm second ;)

[@ShadeheartTheSouless]

lol very classy XD

[@jalgorth]

could you do Kleine Festmusik by Bernhard Krol, op.16? if so that would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work!

[@dianawolf894]

Frippery 8

[@CaptCinnamon]

I'm trying to start up a horn choir in my home town and was looking for a frippery to do and this one sounds perfect. I've spent 30 minutes looking around the internet for the sheet music for it to no avail. Is there anyway you can help me find the piece?

[@ohsteacher]

hornistsnest.org has all of the Fripperies.

[@CaptCinnamon]

Thank you!

[@JokinJoe]

Too bad I can only subscribe once. Exceptional playing, man.

[@AKRINIST]

I recommend investing in a green screen, and a program to use it with. But overall I love it! Creative, simple, and exuberant! Well done.

[@jnbplaysgames]

Looking at how he hasn't done many of these videos recently, I doubt he would have gotten his investment out of it.

[@majoraquino8413]

@asslya24: where does he teach?

[@sarahcoffey7188]

Utah State

[@rickydags]

which one is which? what corner is what part? is it the same for all videos?

[@spencerking9995]

0:47

[@Mrdianalynn]

@smculbertson I especially like the musician ship

[@dianawolf894]

How bout this one?

[@dwightwhitlock2882]

Stephen Sondheim: Hey, I bet it will sound awesome if I use 0:29 in every one of my songs....

[@hankkirby5386]

Can someone post a link to this music sheet so I can get it

[@rachelcompton4625]

www.hornistsnest.net/catalog.htm

[@rachelcompton4625]

You have to call and place your order, very sweet people!

[@angelomazzucco2017]

:)

[@stickom]

First view( 15 sec. after)- He,he, he!!!

[@blueser202]

Sounds very Dvorak

[@aztec11]

very "kool" playing -D

[@Mrdianalynn]

@smculbertson this should be required for all horn players to graduate.

[@dianawolf894]

French horn

[@JokinJoe]

That is the strangest comment I've seen.

[@majoraquino8413]

"So where's the base?" LOL

[@ramosdylan20]

1 year an no one has corrected him.

[@toohotsoupy]

+ramosdylan20 and*

[@ramosdylan20]

I did not see that, thanks.

[@asock]

Excuse me its bass

[@arthurchavand850]

héhé ya pas besoin d'être a plusieurs cor pour faire un quatuors mdrrr

[@akrukowski1964]

It would have been funny if the blind bass was facing the wrong direction.
