About this exposition

Name: Gyeongdeok Heo Main subject: Classical Horn research supervisor: Pete Saunders Title of research: Effective practice methods for modern horn players to learn natural horn Research question: How can modern horn players adapt to the natural horn effectively? Summary of the results: For present day horn players to learn the natural horn, it needs an effective way to adapt the techniques such as adjustment of instrument weight, tube length and playing methods. After practicing natural horn as a modern horn player, I became interested in developing an effective practical method to play natural horn and this led me to start my research on this topic. Through extensive interviews with modern horn players who also played natural horn and students who just began to learn natural horn, I was able to figure out the most difficult part in the learning process. Although both the modern horn and the natural horn use the same mouthpiece, it should be played with different musical techniques. In this thesis, I propose three effective ways, a breath attack, a lip bending and a hand-stopped technique, in which a modern horn player can practice to learn natural horn. These three techniques can be practiced and easily applied to, for example, Beethoven horn sonata, op.17. This research provides an effective way and musical guide for modern horn players who wish to learn natural horn in future. Biography: Gyeongdeok Heo is a classical horn player who was born in South Korea. He studied classical horn under the supervision of Sang-Eung Kim and Jeong-Wan Kim. He received his bachelor's diploma at HanYang University in 2017, and during his bachelor's program, he participated in GwaCheon philharmonic orchestra as a horn player from 2012 to 2014. Currently, he is studying for a Master's degree at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague under Martin van de Merwe while learning natural horn from Teunis van der Zwart and Herman Jeurissen. He also has experience playing with the Rotterdam Philharmonic, and participating in the Gergiev Festival and Stockhausen’s Aus Licht.
