May I suggest "Gillespiana" by Lalo Schifrin, originally written in 1960 for Dizzy Gillespie's quintet and an all-brass big band, or the classic Miles Davis/Gil Evans collaborations ("Miles Ahead," "Porgy and Bess," "Sketches of Spain") with Evans incorporating French horns into a larger tonal spectrum backing Davis.
Oh yeah horn has a crazy range. You just gotta be skilled enough to utilize it. It’s insane that Sarah can get that register to actually come out so strong
Just astounding. You know intellectually that anyone who plays in the Berlin Phil is a brilliant player, or they wouldn't be in the Berlin Phil. But to actually see it in practice is incredible. And it's not just chops for the sake of chops. It's always about the music. The chops serve the music, which is how it should always be.

This is so kick ass. 12 years of sitting near horn sections in community orchestras and college and I dont think I've ever heard the low register so well explored and executed. Moments where the horn sounds near like a 'Bone. Also surprising was the use of the far upper register in the first mvmnt. Nearly sounded trumpet-like. I had no idea the horn could do that.
The French Horn has the same tubing length as a trombone, twice that of a trumpet, enabling low notes. It also has a small mouthpiece like a trumpet, enabling the higher notes. Yes it gives a wide range, assuming the player's tooth and lip shapes allow reaching the ends of the scale.
You bring the greatest joy round the world with your beautiful French horn skills and special arrangements. Thank you from the bottom of the world, the very south of New Zealand!
Horn is the best for single instrument brass ensembles. It can play nearly all the notes a trumpet and a trombone can. And it can be mellow or brassy. It goes well with nearly any other instrument. It is a beautiful, versatile instrument.
Brushed up well didn't they . Never normally see the horns in such splendor . Superb and thank you for sharing. Enjoy your trip abroad Sarah, hope he SUN Shines ....
The Berlin Phil horns! Nobody plays the horn as they do. And Sarah Willis! Nobody plays low horn as she does. Okay, Denise Tryon is right up there, too, but I’d still have to vote for Sarah! What else can I say about them and her? 1,000 bravissimos!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻📯🎄
So much to love about this. Agreed best Horn section around. The thing that stands out to me is the balance. You can choose to listen to each horn or collectively as a section. I have played in section with “professionals” that think louder is better and you can’t hear yourself, others in the section or the orchestra. Berlin Horns are my inspiration. Thank you! ❤️
Marvelous! , The register of the french horns are espectacular , from the lowest pitch to the highest pitch , so the arrangement is not a problem for the Berlin Philharmonic Horns, it seems to be a jazz music written for our present time , not taken from Tchaikovsky music. awsome! , BRAVO Sarah", and thanks for sending it, Merry Christmas ! to all of you.
No solo sos (escribo como argentino) una maravillosa ejecutante sino que a ello le sumas tu simpatía y belleza. Gracias por enseñarnos tu música tan especial, por lo de Cuba y esperando alguna vez escucharte tocando algún tango de Piazzolla. Saludos afectuosos.
Sarah’s videos have brought for me a brand new insight into the wonderful world of horn music and now I can realize what a beautiful instrument is is. Thank you to Sarah for het continued effort to make wonderful music. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💐
Best horn section there is and you have such a range and gorgeous variations in tonality. What next? I think similar treatment for The Rite of Spring 😂Happy Christmas Sarah, Stefan and the Berlin Horns.
Sarah is an undisputed GODDESS of the low horn! Magnificent sound!!!
The horn reaches even lower notes. From Brasil
@@miltonderezende7906yes I can go to Base Clef T23. But is it good no.
Let’s not forget the percussionist. Tasteful jazz drumming and mallets. He really makes it swing.
This is certainly past middle school horns -- outstanding horntastic performance !!!!
Who says Horns can’t play jazz? Fabulous!
Yeah!

Wow! That big beefy sound Sarah gets out of that horn. Just amazing.
No
I agree; it's very impressive!
Incredible musicians
RS. Canada
"Do you play the low horn or the high horn?"
Sarah: "Yes."
And a Merry Christmas to you too!
Gorgeous. Hats off to the arranger as well!
Amazing! especially the Sarah Willis's low register
一日中でも聴いてられる🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Didn’t know the French Horn went that low. LOVE that sound. Great arrangements ,can’t wait to hear more from this group.
Search Sarah Willis for more of her incredible playing.

The Horn is the same length as an F baritone.
@@jessstuart7495 F tuba, you mean? Baritone is 9 feet. Horn is 12 plus.
French horn has always been my favorite brass to listen to; they have just a mellower, sweeter tone, in my opinion. This is great. Thank you.
Tchaikowsky revolcándose de felicidad en su tumba. Jamás se habría imaginado ésto.
Delightful. Reminiscent of the Duke Ellington suite recorded back in the sixties.
Makes me want to dance the night away .... ... ...
Awesome. Not many French Horn players can attempt to play jazz. But the Berlin French Horn players nailed it. excellent
Those are some full low notes at the beginning, I have never heard a horn produce notes of that quality before.
Sarah is the best in the business.
Yeah Sarah Willis is pretty much the best. She's amazing!
And an enthusiastic speaker and hostess in front of the camera also - a true treasure!
Lance, neither have I, but these are the REAL pros!
Those low notes can be reached in the F mode (by not pushing the thumb valve).
Creative, talented, and wishing I could hear Berlin live before I die.
So ein toller Klang. Was Horn so alles kann. Großartig.!!!
Nicht zu vergessen den tollen Drummer.!!!

@@BenAtTheTube *same length as a tuba!
@@cmw12 the F side is the same length as an F tuba, Bb the same as a trombone.
I love this and lovely ladies with such a lowwwww voice... Merry XmaX
Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!
Sarah Willis, the best ❤️

Very nice. Perfect for Sarah for the bass line.
Danke, thanks, and spasiiibboooo)))

I’ve been a bass trombone and tenor trombone player for a long time and just started learning horn on a 8D, it is such a great instrument
GLORIOUS! OF COURSE!
3:42 was absolutely gorgeous. No matter how hard I try, I can’t get my low range to sound that full and beautiful. good job everyone!
What the viedeo lacked in quality was more than made up by the sublime quality of the playing from everyone - brilliant
Being both a drummer and a trumpet player, this is amazing!
Real skill and ability is always a joy to watch. Brilliant.
Fantastic!
