The Horn has always been one of the brass instrument family’s most fascinating members due to its sweet, yet full timbre. For centuries it has seen service as a signal horn, a post horn and as a musical instrument, but the development of the Valve Horn during the 1st half of the 19th century really placed the Horn in the forefront among solo instruments. Robert Schumann was among the first to acknowledge the full potential of the new instrument, and on this recording he and four colleagues speak to us with the electrifying and calling voice of the Valve Horn.
Robert Schumann: Adagio & allegro
Richard Strauss: Andante für Horn und Klavier
Paul Hindemith: Sonate für Horn und Klavier
Carl Nielsen: Canto serioso
Sigurd Berge: Horn-lokk
