I was just playing around with
I was just playing around with something for violin and piano, filling in some of the piano left hand as I went, and for some reason changed the piano LH to horns. Although whatever this piece winds up as will have either a piano, orchestra, or maybe just some other strings instead of just the horns, I kind of like their sound.
The violin I was using is the Sinfonia Violin, which has a smoother attack, without clickiness, and a nicer vibrato than the GM violin, but the horns are the GM horns. <center><table border=1><tr><td>thing for violin and horns C-id 2 A.not (245.8 k)</td></tr></table></center> |

Hi, M.G.
Strings and horns,
Hi, M.G.
Strings and horns, can't beat 'em. One of my favourites is the "Storm" Prelude from Peter Grimes by Benjamin Britten: high slow strings with sustained brass chords in the low register, all building to a massive climax. Wait a minute, I've got it around here somewhere. <center><table border=1><tr><td>Britten's Storm Prelude from Peter Grimes BRIT33A1.MID (160.5 k)</td></tr></table></center> Back to your piece: Your violins will shriek over the figure at bar 166 (comes in earlier, too). I remember a Stravinky-ism: "'But, Maestro, the horn can't play possibly that note!' 'Yes, but think of the look on his face when he tries.'" Some contra-bassoon on the walking bass line might be interesting, too. David |
