Summary of This Score
Composed by a Richard Strauss barely 18 years old, the Horn Concerto No. 1 in E-flat Major, Op. 11 is often described as a true stroke of genius-both brilliant, lyrical, and perfectly written for the instrument. This score is intended for horn players wishing to work on a major repertoire piece, recognized and performed worldwide, both in concerts and competitions, auditions, and exams.
This Urtext edition is based on all available sources to offer a reliable, coherent musical text that respects Strauss's intentions. The editorial preparation by Peter Damm, an essential figure in the horn world and internationally renowned soloist, brings valuable musicological and instrumental insight: his stage experience and research on the work's history illuminate the score and enhance its relevance for serious preparation.
To support daily practice, the piano reduction by Johannes Umbreit is a central asset. Designed to be comfortable to play, it facilitates rehearsals, style study, rhythmic setup, and sound balance between soloist and accompanist. The entire edition is offered in paperback binding, practical for the music stand and suited for intensive practice sessions.
