I’m going to go ahead and say David Cooper is going to be one of most influential Horn players of this next generation. Legendary.
I quite agree
He already is.
For sure!! He now plays for Chicago as principal horn and I couldn’t be happier considering that’s where I live! He’s simply incredible!
David Wei ㅛㅛㅆㅆ쏘
Agree
David Cooper is indeed one of the best Horn players I’ve ever listened, I’m from Chicago and have heard him in the CSO when they played Ein Heldenleben and I loved his playing since. This concerto he played had so much emotion he put in his playing. Loved it!!! As a horn player in high school, I look up to this amazing hornist!
I always admire David's bravery for posting unedited live recordings. Very nice performance!
I’m a normal high school junior who goes to East Lansing High School (East Lansing is the home of Michigan State University) and the dude who taught this guy is my horn teacher and that still shocks me
Adam Johnson Heck yes!!! Go Green!!! Dr. Bartlett is the best!!! I'm so proud to be from Lansing, Michigan!!!
13:15 I love how they play this section- the pianist is quite gentle, fading with each recurring chord.
Wow! I would love to play like that in my dreams! lol
Brilliant on accounts. that pianist and the piano is absolutely first rate. The piano was crisp, clean, clear, letter perfect. Damn! And his playing was astonishing. Wow!
The sound of the horn and the playing of it s truly brilliant and gorgeous - well done!!
Shout out to my friend David Alan Cooper with the Dallas Symphony! Wow! I loved how you performed the "Strauss Horn Concerto No. 1 in E flat" so beautifully and passionately! This was one of my favorite pieces that I performed when I would have auditions. Awesome Bravura opening and runs in the composition. Your crystal clear, warm tone throughout the dynamic range of this piece and the sweet melodic singing of your horn make your performance unforgettable! I also loved how you were able to add your signature artistry and musicianship in such an enjoyable way while remaining true to the composer! You are one of my favorite Horn Masters!!! Keep bringing the AMAZING performances! Can't wait to see what's next from you and the Dallas Symphony!! Happy New Year!! :-)
Absolutely fantastic!
Cooper is one of the best French Horn players that ever heard. Nice sound and wave band contrast, clearer sound head.
Beautiful!
Beautiful!!!👏🏻👏🏻
That was the nicest comment to see EVER!!! Thanks Esteban!!!
David Cooper Ignacio shared yesterday the video in the Roosevelt Brass Tribune...perfect Strauss! Wonderful!! Simply beauty!
You're the nicest guy! So glad I get to make music with you and share the stage in Chicago! Can't wait to play together again soon!
I should've grabbed a plane ticket down to see you play this! You sound so good!
It was surreal! John Cooper
Wonderful!!! I love this peace.
Just fantastic!!
Gorgeous!!!
Also I meant that you sounded amazing before, but I find that the taper on an Alex (or Schmid) is my favorite tone for horn...
I missed you by a day in Vail. Love this performance. Hope to see you somewhere in the world.... Santa Fe has a great chamber festival... dreaming.
LEGENDARY playing wow!
Cooooooop! OUTSTANDING Sir! I have been enjoying ALL of your videos over the years. Enjoyed hearing you with Berlin via Berlin Phil Digital Concert Hall videos. Looking forward to hearing you in the Chicago Symphony. Congratulations on All of your achievements! you sound wonderful.
I know I'm 3 years late but it sounded great! I remember playing this in 9th grade, it was amazing.
Wonderfully played :) I will be waiting to hear you play strauss 2! Thanks for posting this video :)
It’s easy to see why he won the job in Berlin
#0:02 1st movement
#4:48 2nd movement
David, I never heard that beautiful sound of Alex 103 🤪Seriously! Much greetings and good luck in Berlin.
Amazing performance, David! I like your playing on that Alex and even more that you keep playing a lot on the F-side :)
Keep it up!
Beautiful ✨
Beautiful. I'm looking forward to watching you play with your new orchestra on the Digital Concert Hall.
To all this where for regional auditons, the excerpt starts at 4:53
Great job! Can’t wait to hear you at Berlin. (If you recorded Strauss 2 my dreams would be fulfilled.)
Great sound!! Bravo!!
Exactly what a horn should sound like. A great player combined with an Alex 103 is unbeatable.
satinbarbi i like Alex sound
There is some incredible lyrical shaping at the dynamic of piano/pianissimo. Other than the intonation that I am accustomed to listening at a slightly higher pitch tuning, it is an incredible performance.
Great !!!
that neighbor note at 3:25 was hilarious no shade or disrespect to the pianists who I had no complaints about, but that had me laughing for like 5 minutes
What a great performanceBst success in Berlin
Love his interpretation of this classic. Now he is principal of Chicago Symphony .
Looking forward to hearing you play here in Berlin! :D
Wow! Inspiring. He's got it all.
Dude you sound so much better on an Alex. Bravo!
You sound great, dude!
w o n d e r f u l ! ! ! !
Brilliant.
What video camera/recording set up is this?
Bravo, superbe interprétation
The pianist started the 3rd movement incredibly fast I think cooper smiled cause it was shockingly vivace lol.
Love your Alex 103 sound as well👍👍📯📯
4:55 II.
9:49 III.
Ela ifa))))super
Kudos to the pianist!
The first recorded performance I've heard to nearly rival that of Myron Bloom, which I still consider to be the best ever. Very controlled and refined, not the "horn hero" Boris Becker approach used by the other players I've heard.
I think the hero approach is better, in my opinion. It has more risks and it isn't as dry. The brassy edge of a horn shouldn't be completely eliminated like this, because it takes away a certain color and texture to a work that makes it sound less musical. Completely my opinion though! We are all entitled to our own taste, and this certainly isn't mine. I prefer the hero. It suits the horn.
Wa! Amazing
Bravo
Bemerkenswert! Ich glaube, dass es Richard Strauss genau so gemeint hat! So schön habe ich es noch nie gehört. Ich hab mir ein Lesezeichen angelegt!

what's the song he plays in the "encore" video??
unknown Arrangement of Chopin's "Minute Waltz, originally written for piano.
Finally the berlin philharmonic have a principal horn player that plays with grace. Didn´t really happen since baborak left
I am 11 and I can already play this piece
Well I can play it some flaws😅
Did he quit his position of Berlin ? I prefer his Luis to Alex.
Unfortunately he did. The orchestra claimed "personal reasons."
I wish the last movement were a notch slower.
THIS is how the Horn should sound ! Unique, centered, tightly held, and clear. I have no patience with musicians who think the Horn should sound like a Euphonium filling up Yankee Stadium. Or played like a timid soy boy. Or a turkey trapped inside a crate of wool. And the WORST being played with tremolo like a musical saw or sounding like the "banana man" when he forgets to take his haloperidol.

Great horn playing. Terrible interpretation by the pianist, who guessed 60% of the notes.
Really interesting comment. I really love the clarity on the piano. Supportive , not intrusive. Beautiful playing. They're not robots. They're people. Outstanding performance, in my opinion.
@@ejlabarre I've been accompanied many times at the piano playing Strauss 1st when I was a horn student, and I've never heard anything like that, so it's an educated opinion. I can tell you, many many notes and chords are wrong. I'm not saying he was missing notes, I'm saying he didn't know the score.
I do respect if the guy was feeling nervous or anything, and probably he's a great pianist, but to me it's a fact that the interpretation is flat, and he was guessing notes rather than making music.
Here you have an example of what I consider a proper piano playing, also with Cooper: czcams.com/video/rLeSZ3ejpjI/video.html. Hope you appreciate the difference.
