The french horn really makes me feel like an old war hero looking back on all my awards and accolades as I slip into memories of my glory days

[@TopRacer-tx5cd]

That’s well said. Sounds very beautiful and noble how you said it. Me myself, am an Euphonium and Trumpet player and i find the horn very heroic sounding too. Thats why Brass instruments are my all time favourite and i like collecting them so much. I’m getting my own French horn very soon aswell. 😁

[@TheMagmaKnight8]

Well said.

[@GustavoSilva-ub2xy]

Poético ✊

[@fultonjohnsonaton5096]

Haha :)

[@Kullioking]

Well it is a Vienna horn not a French horn.

I wish ALL hornists sounded like this. Gorgeous sounds.

[@ronankordsmeier9001]

I play double horn, I can get a pretty good sound but not like this

[@Kullioking]

@@ronankordsmeier9001 because it is a double horn, not a Vienna Horn.

[@kmills62]

French Horns....my favorite instrument....this sounds fabulous...

yaass thank you there sound makes me sooo moist

I'm in love with my instrument all over again. :) Gosh I love being a horn player. This is amazing!

[@izzieyoung1557]

for me, i personally get uninspired easy, but things like this make me wanna work for it again. so i come back to these things to fall in love with my french horn

[@annaelisabeth3028]

SAME!!!

[@Tacomaguy458]

I still remember playing this in band at middle school 20+ years ago. We had a full trumpet section and I was 2nd or 3rd chair but I was asked to give French horn a try as we didn’t have any. I was the only one so naturally most of this turned into a solo. I remember being terrified to screw it up at out concert.

[@adude394]

The horn itself is a difficult enough instrument. The Vienna horn takes it to a whole other level. All I can do is shake my head at this level of excellence.

[@dangleeman1]

What a lush sound. They get so many different tones out of one kind of horn. BEAUTIFUL!

[@optimusprimus89]

I'm not crying.. the beautiful harmonious sounds are rattling my tear ducts full of nostalgic wonder 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭❤❤❤

[@Champe221]

The bass has some real talent, so difficult to play lower than a fundamental low F below staff with good sound

[@GryptpypeThynne]

When?

[@alex95sang52]

GryptpypeThynne In the first second you can hear three e flats playing. The lowest one is not easy to do well

[@johnchoi4627]

I find it easier to play lower as a french horn player

[@JoshuaHu060901]

Its especially hard on Vienna F Horn as you have to bend the low Gb to get to the F.

[@cringecastfull7278]

Not really but ok

[@jamesburnett7085]

Gives me chills, it is so beautiful. Chill, then tears. Almost unbearably beautiful. Makes me hurt all over. Strange, I know.

[@awesome1012424]

I play the French Horn, and this piece actually made me cry, it's so darn beautiful

[@kyleko9353]

To work in this studio you must wear glasses

[@garrettsipper2465]

Imagine how loud it must be for the percussionists back there behind them

[@TheRandomWolf]

I’m a Tuba player and I sit behind French horns and yeah it gets loud

[@ShadyRich00]

THOSE HORNS!!!! BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING!!! I wish my band would play something like this. I would be speechless and amazed.

[@elainebmack]

What a glorious, golden, noble sound. I get chills and warmth all at once.

[@dbikeguy]

Such perfect 1st horn parts. The arrangements really pulls out the thick thick texture. The movement of sound seems as if it is physically tangible with how thick it is. Those low parts are sublime also.

[@jenkinsfamily2229]

Even as a trombonist, the french horn has to be my favorite instrument to listen to.

[@kipjohnson6647]

Tears of joy and sadness. This is the most majestic, melloncoly piece ever. Alexander Wagendristel is a genius

[@whileysea]

My Grandfather played this Horn after WWII. With 1 Hand. This gave him back his dreams and hope. I did not understand as a child, but now. VERY BEAUTIFUL

[@cpthornman]

I have the Cd and I must say that this is MUST listening for every horn player out there. Some of the best horn playing we've ever heard.

[@pauls5745]

very impressive! the awesome range these people have! I was amazed at first hearing the clear bright upper range parts and the full, rich lows from only F horns. I'm a low brass player and decided I want to take up horn after hearing this

[@reachdanny]

The majestic work of John Williams. Horns sound so heavenly from the lows to the highs with all that fat juiciness in between.. I love it!

[@Marsuvees1298]

Hands down, the absolute best Horn ensemble I have ever heard.

[@jayforerunner965]

I don’t know why French Horn is such an underestimated instrument it’s BADASS!!!

[@Kullioking]

This is are Vienna Horns, not French Horns. Ther is a big diverence in the Instrument.

[@jayforerunner965]

Lukas Griessenberger I know but They are related though I just said French Horn for reference.

[@Kullioking]

@@jayforerunner965 Both are Horn's. But both have a compleat different buildup.

[@Darkstar2425]

Trumpets think they are the best brass section, but French horn players know it.

[@toad9229]

+Ryan Hutton I'd love to play this piece (i play french horn and to be honest, its hard to get the pitches right) and i'd switch to the vienna horn just for it to like it did in jurassic park,then again, imagine the vienna horns and french horns playing this piece!

[@lo_quat]

i play trumpet but I'm learning the French horn. and I like it so much better. the French horn sounds so light and beautiful

[@kaitlynjones5744]

duhh horns are the best ever 😍 -from a horn player her self-

[@skyguy7567]

+Darkstar2425 I'm a trumpet player and would love to try horn, but dem mouthpiece is too big >.

[@kaitlynjones5744]

exactly! tha heck u talkin bout? u ever see a horn before lol u funny

[@tatescreek12]

Such a warm sound. Very very beautiful.

[@calebkruzel7858]

Listening to this arrangement and the musical prowess put into the music itself makes me almost cry in joy and admiration. The Vienna Horns have always been idols of mine, and this music... Beautiful, if not more

[@ericprentice3032]

WOW!!!!!! Go horns!!! I miss playing so much. That was absolutely stunning.

[@garyd.gardner6125]

This is the sound Philip Farkas and Frank Brouk had growing up in Chicago from Czech heritage. They originally learned on the single F horn, which became their basic concept of the true horn tone. Eventually they both went on to play Principal Horn with the Cleveland and Chicago orchestras.

[@user-wt3di4hn3m]

素晴らしすぎて震えました。 最高な時間をありがとうございました。

[@nelsonutella]

Such virtuosity, such tone, such musicality, such is the beauty of the Vienna Horns.

[@hankkirby5386]

These people are amazingly good. Perfect tones and harmonies, super high and low playing, I hope someday I’m this good.

[@danielhirst8039]

Well played lads, you are the inspiration that makes me the man I am today, you should definitely play farandole, it would complete my life, horn heaven.

[@alexmurphy8078]

I'm also a horn player this is a song we are playing in band for one of our concerts this arrangement was amazing; go horns!

[@macDaddy1118]

Any variation of the French horn is just wonderful. Hands down best instrument

[@thomassicard3733]

I played in the WYSO horn section (Summer, 1980) with a young man who later played in the VPO. He was intense and destined to play a Weiner horn with the VPO. Can't remember his name, but he was 3rd horn all Summer. I was Assistant to Eric Ruske. Eric started playing with the Cleveland Orchestra at age 21, I started playing with the Houston Symphony at age 22, and (what was his name???? dang!!!) with the VPO very young, as well. What a horn section we had!!! A great Conn 8D was my path, but if those didn't exist? I would play a single F Weiner horn. "Totally, dude, like yeah man... I'd still be totally stoked."

[@NINJA0BOB3211]

I be a trumpet player...and I have to admit, that was amazing.

[@LuisSpinns]

Got chills. So amazing

[@jeffreylramsay]

If the low horn player is still performing, someone needs to sample those amazing low notes for composers to enjoy for years to come.

[@loona9278]

The French horn is such a beautiful instrument

[@nonasayed9617]

I LOVE HORN VERY MUCH

[@jerelull2619]

Notice when the one horn is playing with the glockenspeil... cool!

[@chaihyunsama]

Great Composer and Wonderful Harmony with Perfect Horn Players!!

[@messrtwinky]

INCREDIBLE!! OPENING OF HEAVEN'S GATES!! GLORIOUS!!! PERFECTION!!

[@YoMunCraftYTjackmaster09]

This is beautiful I wish I could play this on my French Horn!

[@Metal-Possum]

I like the guy who has his horn decorated in zip-ties...

[@GarrardA59]

They are not for decoration, but rather to secure the 'crook' (rounded lead pipe to change keys) to the main body of the instrument, to prevent it from vibrating, creating a buzz.

[@LOVEFOREVERBLUE]

I've always loved the sound of the french horn.💖

[@cliffordsingleton3046]

French horn is truly the best

[@SMCwasTaken]

Have you played Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire?

[@mizzflex2]

I used to play French Horn in symphonic and marching band. It was so dumb of me for quitting when I was in a junior, in 11th grade. I had a special ear for music and a natural knack for a embouchure that produced a flattering sound in a multi-octave range as opposed to other student Horn players who struggled with all that. I recall a comment made on the French horn sound my friend in school made, "Sounds like a dying moose." Lol ouch :/ (Not exactly sure what that even sounds like, but I wouldn't doubt that it sounds like a French horn played with a terrible embouchure.)

[@fishingwiththenerd]

It's never too late to come back, you know!

[@mizzflex2]

Do you play horn? Any idea how long it would take for me to get my embouchure back? Like if I practiced 4-7days per week I'm hoping 6-8 weeks.

[@fishingwiththenerd]

Unfortunately, I can't give you a definitive answer. However, I do know that brass players usually take two to six weeks to recover from getting braces or wisdom teeth out. It's not quite the same thing, but it's pretty close. Hope I was of some help. And yes, I do play horn.

[@mizzflex2]

Thanks Charlie ;) I just have to buy one.

[@jonathanfirra5738]

Yeah, getting braces on or off is somewhat of a struggle. When you 2 out of 3 years playing with braces it is especially weird.

[@michaelsublet3283]

I love the zip ties holding the Horn together at the beginning. My French Horn at school was always busting the welds.

[@tactical_ghost199]

This actually brings a tear to my eye

[@jamieson.]

This is literally the most beautiful thing I’ve heard in my life. French Horn gang bois!

[@gilonkravatsky458]

Elisha Kim Actually the horns used by vienna horns are of vianniase descent.

[@gilonkravatsky458]

Elisha Kim Although it is true that modern rotary valve horns are of German descent.

[@josezarzo1]

absolute beautiful/stunning playing!!!! bravi dear colleagues!!!!!

[@cfmac123]

The Euphonium is like the french horn of the low brass. A nice, warm sound that is mind numbingly beautiful when played correctly.

[@abtwitch]

French Horns are amazing instruments with a range that is unlike any other instrument, and it has uncountable feelings and tones that it can make without anything helping it. I play the Euphonium, but French Horns amaze me no matter what.

[@ScottyHunter]

0:12 Is it normal to have zip ties holding your horn together?

[@parkershive5275]

Yes, they are using them because they have different crooks.

[@sunrise_noxx]

Yes, they use them to hold the metal pieces together. Like I use a rubber band to hold my two pieces near the mouthpiece together, but it is normal :)

[@xdoveinthedark]

That's what I was wondering.

[@xxcookiesyamxxskree7486]

Scotty mine doesn’t have zip ties…

[@rayzhang5551]

the reason for the zip ties is because these are Vienna horns. Vienna horns have those crooks (the little metal loop after the mouthpiece) that are detachable, so the zip ties are there to make sure the crook doesn't move around.

[@raydevil98]

I can play this

[@pietschey7921]
