In the summer of 1888 while also working on his tone poem Don Juan Richard Strauss composed this brief Andante for his father Franz Strauss a member of the Munich Court Opera and one of the greatest horn players of his age. The Andante was intended as the slow movement ???of a still unfinished??? sonata that Strauss however never did complete (to the chagrin of all horn players). The piece thus remained unpublished until 1973. For the new Urtext edition by G. Henle Publishers the original autograph manuscript held at the Munich Public Library was able to be examined directly. The Andante is of only moderate difficulty and is ideally suited for teaching purposes and as aneffective Romantic performance piece.

Timeless Cornish Melodies-As I sit myself down to write this brief foreword I ask myself can there be music more stirring than these old Cornish folk melodies? Though not Cornish myself (I confess to being born a little further up the road in Bristol) I feel I have spent sufficient time in these 'ere parts to resonate with the sturdy brass band tradition that continues to permeate this incomparably beautiful rugged county. One can almost detect a French 'accent' when listening to the piano music of Debussy and likewise speaking as a lapsed brass player there is undoubtedly something of the Cornish twang about Trelawny when played on a cornet or euphonium. Then again one gets a different yetentirely convincing effect upon hearing these melodies rendered on woodwind instruments; hence with a little gamesmanship on my part I am pleased to see my collection of these fifteen delectable ditties come to fruition in the form of arrangements for treble clef brass instruments (in B flat and E flat) trombone and tuba (bass clef) horn in F flute clarinet and bassoon.While many will find themselves humming the likes of Going up Camborne Hill Lamorna or The Helston Furry Dance even before they have turned to the first page - for these are indelibly intertwined with Cornish culture I wonder if I might draw your attention to The Cornish Squire The Pool of Pilate and Cold Blows the Wind Today Sweetheart which are quite simply sublime melodies perhaps needing that extra bit of help in bringing them to mind nowadays. In the best tradition of musical hand-me-downs Cornish folk music works equally ideally sung and played and only by doing so on a regular basis can such traditions hope to continue forward with vigour and authority. A legitimate way of achieving this is to revitalise the harmonic scheme of these ancient tunes and bring them up to date for a modern audience; after all it was such an approach that fuelled the imagination of Benjamin Britten and Ralph Vaughan Williams in decades past while skilfully paying homage to the

for Pianoforte and Horn or Violoncello-Beethoven wrote his Horn Sonata op. 17 for Johann Wenzel one of the most famous horn players of his day. According to an anecdote from Beethoven's pupil Ferdinand Ries he only completed it on the day before the première.

Since the autograph score has not survived Jonathan Del Mar has based his scholarly-critical edition mainly on this first print.Misha Donat provides an informative Foreword on the work’s history and genesis (Eng/Ger) and theedition is rounded off by a Critical Commentary (Eng) with a complete description of the sources as well as a page in facsimile.

Par STRAUSS RICHARD. Avec son premier concerto pour cor, et étant à peine âgé de 18 ans, Richard Strauss accomplit un coup de génie ravissant. Jusqu'à nos jours, ce concerto est apprécié dans le monde entier par les cornistes (et par d'autres), faisant partie, aux côtés des chefs-d'oeuvre de Mozart, des pièces de répertoire incontournables à l'instrument. Peter Damm, ancien cor solo de l'orchestre de la Sächsische Staatskapelle de Dresde et soliste de renommée mondiale, ne s'est pas contenté de jouer lui-même en public ce concerto plus de 170 fois, mais il a en outre présenté et publié les résultats fondamentaux de ses investigations concernant la genèse de ce concerto. Son édition Urtext prenden considération toutes les sources conservées et peut ainsi être considérée comme une édition de référence. Pour l'étude de la pièce ainsi que pour les auditions, la réduction pour piano réalisée par Johannes Umbreit et particulièrement bien jouable, s'avère d'une grande aide.
