Haydn

Haydn – love that horn

Haydn’s Horn Concerto number one. A beautiful piece of music, and when the deep horn tones kick in at about two minutes, it’s time to kick back! What is it about the wind instruments? They get right inside you. Where inside? Methinks somewhere around the heart/solar plexus region.

Enjoy. The second movement of Haydn’s horn concerto #1

    Dear Jim,
    I admire Haydn’s music very much and this piece is lovely. The sound of the French horn is so very special,isn’t it? I like hearing them and if possible seeing them—-from the simple original ones to the very elaborate modern instruments. What a great tone they have!
    Thankyou for sharing this.
    Regards,
    Polly.
