Summary of This Score
12 Pieces by 12 Composers is a solo literature collection designed to enrich the horn player's repertoire at the intermediate level. The goal is clear: to offer short, expressive, and accessible pieces while opening the ear to very different musical worlds. This is an excellent score for structuring an end-of-cycle program, preparing an audition, varying practice sessions, or simply discovering contrasting styles of writing and articulation.
The content spans eras and characters: from the vocal and theatrical momentum of opera arias to the lightness of a dance, passing through the poetry of a romantic reverie and the cantabile of a romance. It notably includes excerpts and arrangements from THE INDIAN QUEEN, GIULIO CESARE IN EGITTO (Handel), a German Dance (Beethoven), Orientale (Granados), a Parisian Waltz after LA BOHÉME (Puccini), Reverie (Schumann), pages by Mozart and Brahms, as well as romances by Saint-Saëns and Scriabin. The collection concludes with a more folkloric and narrative color thanks to Mussorgsky.
Beyond the joy of playing, these pieces allow for fine work on phrasing, intonation in the mid-high register, sound stability in lyrical passages, and rhythmic precision in dances. The recordings made by Bernhard Scully and Vincent Fuh provide a valuable reference to refine style, horn-piano balance, and interpretative choices.
