1st violins rarely say that another instrument is the best reason to hear a piece, but this solo is my favorite part of the Tchaikovsky 5th. The horn also adds subtle beauty to Elgar's Nimrod Variation.

良かったですね。ホルンを演奏する人にとって、Symphony No. 5　 Horn Soloパートは何度でも聴衆の前で鳴らしてみたいものです。

[@rosemarryyang]

Thank you!

[@UnableToWin]

Rose how long would you say it took you to learn this solo? You did a great job.

[@rosemarryyang]

Thank you! I first played this excerpt when I was 10, where I learnt it for an exam. This was my first time performing it with the orchestra as an orchestral work. It is really hard to put a time on how much I practiced this since over time, with maturity and understanding, my interpretation has changed. I definitely spent days practicing certain areas and corners of the excerpt though!

[@CelticMorning]

As a child aged, I think, about seven or eight, some eighty years ago I remember hearing this for the first time as background music in a film which featured Henry Fonda. It made such an impression on me that I have enjoyed so much classical music ever since. But I cant remember anything about the film, just the horn solo. Can anyone tell me the name of the film?

[@rosemarryyang]

I have no idea but film but that’s amazing to know! I’m so glad this solo has left an impression on you, because it definitely has on me

[@CelticMorning]

@@rosemarryyang Tchaikovsky, such emotional music, remained a favourite for me over the years and at stressful moments has reduced me to tears at time with the depth of its feeling.

[@emileeee-ow5qr]

I’m going to be performing this for a talent contest. Have any tips?

[@rosemarryyang]

Be confident in yourself, know the solo well so you can have good contact with the conductor, and just play your heart out 😊

[@LukeeBoiii]

How do you get that beautiful horn sound? When I play it sounds more like a euphonium

[@rosemarryyang]

Thank you for liking my sound! Keep working on it. With time, practice, and getting to know your own instrument and playing, you’ll develop your own beautiful sound ☺️ best of luck!

How fast is the tempo? Seems rather fast to me?

Every conductor has right of way with tempo. I take whatever speed the conductor wants.
