This video on YouTube is composer Paul Hindemith conducting his own Concert Music for Strings and Brass, Op. 50 with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Hindemith guest conducted in a nationally-syndicated television series produced by the CSO.

At the :24 mark, hit the pause button and take a look. Four horns and four horn players.

[UPDATE 2021: This video can’t be embedded, but it is still online and well worth the click to view it on YouTube. Hindemith is such an icon for brass players today, seeing him in action will impact how you approach his music. JE. Also, this post was created from a longer “Random Monday” post.]
