Exclusive concert by the Berlin Philharmonic Horn Quartet
Музыка
Sarah Willis and her colleagues from the Berlin Philharmonic Horn Quartet - Stefan Dohr, Andrej Žust, and Stefan de Leval Jezierski - play a selection of works arranged for the horn: Rossini’s “Le rendez-vous de chasse,” Schubert’s “Der Lindenbaum,” Mozart’s “Komm, Lieber Mai,” Mendelssohn’s “O Täler weit, o Höhen,” and The Hunters’ Chorus from Weber’s opera “Der Freischütz.”
This program of hunting- and nature-themed pieces is fitting for the orchestral horn, which is descended from the hunting horn. The quartet has also chosen the perfect location, in the woods of Prince Carl of Prussia’s former palace grounds outside of Berlin. They take advantage of the excellent acoustics offered by the Loggia Alexandra, built in the late 1800s to honor the prince’s late sister, the Russian Empress Alexandra Feodorovna. Completing the outdoorsy theme is the calm presence of Lucky, the music-loving Labrador retriever - who punctuates a musical pause with a well-timed sneeze.
Sarah Willis is a British-American French horn player. In 2001, she joined the Berlin Philharmonic, becoming the first female member of its brass section. Sarah Willis also has a long association with Deutsche Welle, so of course DW Classical Music had to include her and her fellow members of the Berlin Philharmonic Horn Quartet in our series of “Anti-Corona Concerts.” DW Classical Music is offering a digital stage for some of the many classical music artists who are currently unable to perform. The recordings are made by the artists themselves or by a single camera operator.

Thank for inviting me to your special concert in such beautiful surroundings, including Lucky 🌞
What a joyful sound. I love the open air "dryness" of the sound. The horn's original habitat! And of course the skill and sound of the Berlin horns.
The Dog was my spirit animal.. battling my crippling depression with my obsession to horn.

how *could* that dog not react to such music? Totally blasé about it all. Did someone feed him a sedative or something? Normally retrievers like that are into investigating everything.
Thanks, you beautiful, beautiful hornists, showing us what a properly played horn can do. AND you make it look so easy, out in the woods and all.
Thank you sooo much!
Diese Musik berührt mich so sehr. Da muss ich ganz einfach heulen.

The proverbial audience of one man and a dog but without the man.
Die Hornisten unter uns kennen die schönen Stücke nur zu gut aus den grünen Heften
Awesome place

If that were a hound, he would be up and looking for a fox. Iguana
AND that retriever-looking dog, just chilling at your feet, not once going *"SQUIRREL!"*
Der Hund ist ja wohl nur tiefenentspannt!
最高です😊

The dog didn't seem to interested in the hunting call. Everyone's a critic!
How about the DOMINION chase. Just for an old timer.📯📯📯📯📯📯📯📯📯
Nice, on the natural horn it would sound certainly better...

at least Rossini’s “Le rendez-vous de chasse
Listening your playing, and my baby in tummy apparently reacting to horns sound better than piano ( and i am a violinists 😅) she is kicking me.

A future Richard Strauss in the making. Or, perhaps, made.
So gangster
Has Stefan had laser eye surgery, or is he wearing contacts? I've never seen him without glasses
I guess masks would be a tad difficult here...
