Par TIPPETT MICHAEL SIR. Like Robert Schumann who often favoured the horn, Sir Michael Tippett who died on 8 January 1998 makes full use of the instrument‘s tonal possibilities in this work. He translated the Romantic genre of horn quartet into a modern tonal language: “All movements contain characteristic calls and triad arpeggios. Sometimes the call itself is the theme, as in the fugue. Sometimes the calls are the accompaniment to a solo, such as in the nocturne.” (Tippett) The forms of the four movements, however, are traditional. The structure of the ?rst movement is reminiscent of the form of a strophic song. The second movement is an allegro, the slow third a nocturne in the traditional ABA form. And ?nally the last movement is a capricious fugue./ Répertoire / 4 Cors

Piano Reduction-Composed in 1849 Robert Schumann's Concert Piece For Four Horns And Orchestra Op.86 is still considered a romantic work for Horn par excellence and a benchmark for all soloists.'Something quitecurious I believe' it was thus that Schumann described his Concert Piece For Four Horns And Orchestra in a letter and he did indeed break new ground with this work as far as the scoring and treatmentof the instruments was concerned.At the time in which the work was composed the French horn was still fairly new enabling players to play previously unheard-of runs and free modulations a fact which Schumann madethe most of particularly with his scoring for four Horns.

4 Cors En Fa-Suite by Eugène Bozza (1905-1991) is a set of 5 pieces for a quartet of F Horns. This volume includes all parts as well as the conductor’s score. These five pieces are: - Prélude / Prelude - La Chasse / The hunt - Chanson ancienne / Old Songs - Danse / Dance - Choral / Choir - Fanfare / Fanfare Written for advanced players this set of pieces can be played one after the other or separately and is ideal for recitals. Eugène Bozza won different prizes at the Conservatoire de Paris such as the First Prizes for the Violin conducting andcomposition as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He composed several operas chamber works and ballets among others.
