Unsung Romantic Horn Music

[Lionel Harrsion]

Isn't that what they call the 'present historic'?

Doesn't Saint-Saëns compose...?

No, he's decomposing at the moment...

Alan, that joke was old when you were young.  Which, I'm fairly certain, was before I was born. 

[TerraEpon]

Doesn't Saint-Saëns compose a Morceau de Concert for horn and orchestra as well?

I mentioned it above. Again, it's probably the most SUNG horn and orchestra piece from the romantic era, Strauss Concerto #1 aside.

[JimL]

Well, you must be setting aside Weber's Concertino, too. 

[Alan Howe]

It's still a cracker, though. It's the way I tell'em (with apologies to the late, great Frank Carson).

[Paul Barasi]

Cracker: Frank Carson? Oh Fitz! Thought it was Robbie Coltrane
