Videos from the Vienna Horns.
I just found a neat collection of YouTube videos in “Wolferam’s Channel” that feature the Vienna Horns. These are much more than an ordinary concert caught on video. They have strong production value and feature the horn players in interesting and scenic locales.
Most seem to be extracted from the Vienna New Year’s celebration productions (which I don’t think we ever get to see here in America).
Below is a robust arrangement of the third movement from Anton Bruckner’s Fourth Symphony:
Another fine video of Johannes Brahm’s “Vineta:”
Other horn-related YouTube resources:
- Hornchannel – informative, instructional videos
- Hornsolo – a growing library of orchestral excerpts
- Wagnerarg – great videos of Hermann Baumann in a German masterclass setting
- Wolveram – the channel featured in this post
