Video: Mozart K. 407 on Natural Horn
Today I played a bit of natural horn for a change and also spotted this great video among a group of recently posted videos of performances by Javier Bonet. This clip is the last movement of the Mozart Quintet, K. 407 in a great performance on natural horn. I always marvel a bit watching a good natural horn performance, there are no obvious moving parts on the instrument! Enjoy!
UPDATE: This is the YouTube version, the version previously posted quit working.
