SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE SAINT-SAENS ROMANCES FOR HORN AND PIANO

Softcover Book

Publisher: Henle
Format: Softcover
Composer: Camille Saint-Saens
Editor: Dominik Rahmer

Camille Saint-Saens composed his two Romances for Horn for two of the most respected French horn players of the time: Opus 67 in E major from 1866 is dedicated to Henri Chaussier; Opus 36 in F major from 1874 was written for Henri Garigue. Despite the illustrious recipients, they are not virtuosic showpieces but - as the term Romance suggests - short songs without words that fully savor the typical romantic sound of the horn. Alongside the orchestral version, Saint-Saens also prepared a piano accompaniment for chamber music performances. Due to the fact that they are not overly technically demanding the Romances are also suitable for advanced students.
