200 years and 4 or 5 valves later and horn players still fight to find pitches. Weird instrument. Sounds cool though.
Ryan Alexander Bloom most underrated comment of all time
I've played trombone for 40 years and I love it and am proud of it...but I think most brass players secretly yearn to play impressively on the horn...
I'd definitely struggle to find pitches on my horn if a 5th valve sprouted on it! 4 is more than enough thank you :)
@@ImmoSci 5 valve Bb horns do exist, so just pray you don't find one.
@@RyanAlexanderBloom I'm aware they do, but I'm quite happy with my F/Bb double. A guy I play with often has a horn with 5, I'm pretty sure that it's an F/Bb with an extra trigger to lower the semitone for E transposition & handstopping.
That guy must have some serious muscle dexterity in his right hand to be able to adjust pitch that finely.

It’s not like every pitch is from his hand but yeah
Well, yeah, he has the harmonic series available to him, but that's pretty much it
His wife is very lucky indeed.
What are you getting at, Matt?
Cecil Forscyth in his book on orchestration (1914) noted that Haydn did not write for stopped notes, Mozart used stopped notes in the solo passages but rarely if ever in the tutti, and Beethoven used the stopped notes in both solo and Tutti passages.
As a double horn player, I find this very interesting. I think this is very neat.
I too think this is quite neat.
As a plumber , I find this very interesting too!
As a pianist, I also find this quite neat
As a triangle player I also find this neat
You changing the note with your hand in the horn may about be the coolest thing ever.
Thank you Roger Montgomery. A legend of British horn playing.
Very interesting detail about classical era Mozart's Horn. Good job and wonderful presentation.
Excellent demonstration: skillful, clear and succinct! Many thanks!
I always wondered how you would play a horn concerto in 1795
Fascinating
+1
As if the french horn isn't already difficult enough to play...
Very true...but personally I think playing Mozart's horn concertos on a valved horn is a bit of a cheat...
Most interesting! Thank you.

Yeah most people have veins.
If you think this is cool check out javier bonet- he does amazing performances on natural horn.
I once had a whim and I had to obey it...
Yes.
this horn is probably in the time of late classical or early romantic. Something like Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn and Brahms(Brahms uses natural horns for his Serenades and Symphonies)
The horn must be the most intractable instrument that ever existed
Interesting! Thanks
Something I would never be able to play
I'm wondering how people could make the natural horn which is tuned at A=431Hz to modern tuning (A=440Hz)? I watched some Beethoven symphonies performance with modern orchestra and I see hornists play the natural horn in modern tuning. Did they replace the original mouthpieces on those horns with some modern ones?
You just use a different leadpipe, or a reproduction that can achieve A=440. Someone playing natural Horn professionally will have all of the gear they need for this sort of thing.
@@Markworth Fun fact: The pitch change corresponds to the total length difference under 10 cm (4 inch).
S…Snape !?
What are you doing here !?
"Reactionary"?
I think it should be very hard to make the right sound...
No valves, controlling sounds only by the right hand and the embouchure😅😅😅
👏👏👏👏
It's not the only horn of Mozart...
Such a crude instrument
As was the hunter's horn it was developed from.
You're a crude instrument
Wait until you discover the woodblock
Molly Tait go make me a sandwich.
The sliding images of the performer with accompanying whooshing noises is already ridiculously old hat and distracts from the actual content of the video.
I thought it was fine :)
on a channel like this? i think it's fucken adorable actually
Oh shush and stop nitpicking
