About this exposition

Name of student: Seunghun Kim Main subject: French Horn Name of research supervisor: Pete Saunders Title of research: Development of horn's playing technique in 19th century Research question: What is the development of horn playing technique from the beginning to the late 19th century? What was the playing technique of horn used in orchestral music in the 19th century? Summary of results and little explanation: This paper researches the development of horn playing technique throughout the 19th century. And the result of my research is the natural horn and valve horn are completely different instruments. Starting from the point of the natural horn, which was the instrument used at the beginning of the century, it describes the changes made to the horn itself, most notably the incorporation of valves. Through examples drawn from orchestral repertoire from three periods of the 19th century (the beginning of the 19th century: 1800-1840, the middle: 1840-1890, the late: 1890-1910). From simple parts in Beethoven's 3rd symphony through the increasingly difficult and complex parts of works by, among others, (Rossini, Schumann, Brahms, Mahler, Strauss) many aspects of the evolving technique of playing the horn are described. The paper concludes that now modern horn players should be aware of these developments, and also be able to play in the styles and on the instruments of the periods, such as the natural horn with hand stopping. It are very helpful to modern horn players when playing the music from the classical to the beginning of the romantic period.
