The English horn solo from Dvorak’s New World Symphony sounds alright on French Horn.

Its crazy how you make those real high notes sound efforless

I think this is the first time that youtube has recommended me a video from someone I know in real life. I'm super happy for your success as a professional horn player, Scott! Sorry about revealing your tryout number to the regional TMEA judges back in Junior year or thereabouts!

[@dawgs573]

That is some of the best playing I have ever seen.

In the 60s, my horn teacher told me that his teacher was playing in the NY Philharmonic when he was 14 years old, apparently in the 1930s. During a performance of this movement, he glanced at the English horn player and saw him rattling and shaking his apparently broken instrument. So the kid played the solo on his horn. It was in the papers the next day. I have no way of knowing whether this was true.

[@mubaraksenju7521]

That's crazy!! What a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing.

[@mccafferyfamily]

This sounds so good. I would love to lay in a giant reverberant hall and just listen to a solo horn play like this 😂

[@lethalpresencexx]

i definitely think the french horn is the best instrument in band coming from a violin player it’s so beautiful

[@sohambujone3641]

me too

[@mubaraksenju7521]

It is. But a really good horn player is kinda rare xD

[@CFEF44AB1399978B0011]

Your mastery of French horn, one of my favorite instruments, and one I played for years, is impeccable, and I can only dream of seeing you in concert.

[@Andre-yd2pe]

So good bro, you nailed it!

[@LdGunn]

I am a clarinetist/saxophonist, and I somehow thankfully stumbled across your KZbin shorts and thus your channel. Listening to your playing is such a pleasure!

[@keagandanielson9265]

I am SO jealous at how effortlessly you look when you hit that high A let alone the C!?

[@kdarling1]

Such a beautiful tone

[@afchevalier]

I prefer this one. It's so hopeful and even aspirational with the feels. Thank you.

[@DrEsky914]

I have loved the New World symphony since I was a little girl. So beautiful! (and the French horn!)

[@AAronSmithFH]

It's definitely better on french horn 👌

[@mrbroadwaydork]

it's definitely not.

[@jeremiahvelez7338]

As a French horn major, it does sound better on English Horn. There’s just something about the eeriness and timbre of it that makes the melody so fitting. On French horn it sounds smoother, but it takes away from the soothing nature of the instruments around it.

[@littlewishy6432]

The actual French horn soli later on sounds good, not this English horn part on French horn

[@AAronSmithFH]

I really must suck at sarcasm 😂

[@placeholderfornow4766]

@@jeremiahvelez7338 I think it's the naturally darker tone of the English Horn that makes it sound more beautiful when it's played in a passage like this

Yknow something, the horn part in Kingdom Of Predators is pretty epic! Scott could probably pull it off better than the horn in the og recording!

The best day for a horn player is when the oboe player forgets his English horn.

[@TerrenceNoyes]

Question, when did you learn how to play horn and what inspired you to learn the french horn. me was because i was a trumpet player originaly but my director wanted me to try horn and i just got hooked

[@Catherine-classical]

Please do the horn solo in Borodin Symphony No.2, 3rd movement!!

[@kane_973]

brooo you are the boss!!!

[@МарияМайстренко-р9е]

Великолепно!!

[@martineyles]

Is the cor anglais part in F for more than 2 bars straight?! Still, the written Cs in the last movement are high enough for me, so I'll stick to my own part on Saturday (where I'm also playing 4th in the Accademic festival overture that you recently played an excerpt from)

[@FrenchHorn_TKM]

Hello. I'm your fan, you play just great. I am a horn player from Turkmenistan. please help me how to practice correctly. your sound drives me crazy👍

[@carterbrown6907]

Can anyone recommend a good double horn to start on? Coming from trumpet background

[@apolloskyfacer5842]

Damn ! I'll have to practice a lot more.

[@carlw]

OMG that's amazing Scott 😥😥 That's from my favourite symphony. Do you by chance sell your arrangements?? Did you write that arrangement or acquire from IMSLP?

[@ScottLegerHorn]

I was actually just reading off of the score for this one, but I upload my sheet music to my Patreon! This one should be up later this week

[@carlw]

@@ScottLegerHorn Good to know, thanks for the reply!

I guess the high part is played on the Bb horn, rest on F ?? It is possible to play it in F horn but it tends to roll, I suppose.
