Best I've ever heard on this solo - totally natural, no valves, using only hand and embouchure to play the entire solo. The section making "Chords by humming and playing simultaneously to make the chords is quite impressive". Never able to do this solo after 40 years of periodically working on this!! Bravo Javier..you still remain the best ever!! Thanks for sharing your talent with we hornists who admire your great talent!!
@@TheBony45 You're comparing a studio recording to a live performance. You may as well be comparing it to Hermann Baumann's recording on a Geyer double. This is the only instance of a live recording, and Bonet should receive nothing but praise sans comparisons for doing it successfully.
I don't get why people stopped (no pun intended) writing to this level of detail once valve horns became the norm. You'd think being able to play any note open, and most of them stopped, would make the technique more popular. I mean you see ° and ⁺ over notes fairly frequently (enough so that B♭ horns, which hand-stop up 1 and a half semitones, use the thumb for a specialized valve), but usually it's a series of notes using the same stopping or a gradually changing stopping. No more rapid leaps between wide open and fully choked -- a difficult effect to handle well, but when it _is_ handled well it sounds amazing. Of course, the horn became much more versatile with valves. I certainly wouldn't want to go back to a time without them. But it is possible to do a lot of this on valved horns too, and not completely lose the "wildness" when you want it.
incredible job javier! doing this on natural horn is like biking the tour de france with one leg... yet you waltzed through the thing with grace & personality, love it! bravo maestro
Bravo Javi from the UK. I'm an ex horn player and that piece is a bugger with a double horn with valves, so unimaginable on a hand horn. You are a performer and it is great to watch your videos.
Hello Dear Richard. I will be in Birmingham playing a recital with piano and I will probably play there the Weber Concertino with natural horn. ¿Do you live far from there?
Hey Javier, I didn’t make Birmingham 6 years ago but wondered are you in the UK anytime this year or next? I need to watch you live. Hope you’re well 👍🏻
el mejor trompista español que tenemos, con un alma impresionante. da gusto oírle hablar y escuchar su música, enhorabuena por hacer que la trompa disfrute de usted. GRANDE JAVI!
Beautifully played, and quite honestly, better performed than everyone else who has recorded this on a double or triple horn. Incredible phrasing; just beautifully performed music. Thank you!!
AS a horn player myself for many years this was THE nightmare piece to play As students always focus on the high notes he missed every one of them but who cares!
Certainly is a pleasure to hear Mr. Bonet or anyone who plays natural horn so well. Used to love hearing Lowell Greer play and hear him speak of the history of the instrument. I wish Mr. Bonet would tour the U.S. with the major U. S. orchestras. I'm curious if this is a reproduction horn? The wrap looks a bit like an Uhlman. It does appear that it sounds pretty easily. Of course it's his skill making it difficult to know on a video. 😮 His hand technique is flawless.
maestro mucho gusto volver a ver un nuevo vídeo de usted me llamo Gustavo campos para servirle soy de México fui a todos sus clases cuando estuvo aquí toca impresionante
Too many incredible details to mention everything, but I will comment what no one else has yet. Audience, do you notice the circular breathing? 1:18 is a good example. What absolute mastery!
Wenn man das naturhorn wirklich beherrscht im wahrsten sinne des wortes, ist es um einiges leichter als vor allem am F-horn oder B-Horn, wo E-dur doch seehr schlecht liegt.
oft machen, die ja auch ursprünglich für Naturhorn komponierten Stücke auf eben jenem diesem am meisten Sinn, wenn man das ursprüngliche Instrument denn auch soweit beherrscht. ich bin selbst noch ein Naturhorn Anfänger, aber trotzdem merke ich es immer wieder, dass viele Dinge auf dem Naturhorn mit einem Mal viel Sinniger sind und dadurch auch deutlich leichter von der Hand gehen
Was this concertino really originaly intended for nature horn? In the von Weber time were horns with valves already invented, weren't they? (Anyway Javier, you are a devil , devilishly good player ... :D :o . I cannot imagine playing even Mozart concerts on the nature horn...)
Concertino was written in his first version in 1806, the second version a few years later, and valves were invented in 1815/1820. It´s clearly for natural horn
@@javierbonethorn Also, valves didn't immediately become mandatory on horn the way they did on trumpets and cornets and the like, because horns had already been partially freed from the shackles of being "brass timpani".
Nicht nur möglich.. Es wurde nur dafür geschrieben und liegt dort auch um einiges besser als am F- oder B-Horn, sofern man das naturhorn als eigenständiges Instrument wirklich beherrscht.
Я всё понимаю, это конечно большое мастерство играть на натуральной валторне, но зачем это нужно сейчас, в 21 веке? когда есть современный инструмент. А этот выход наверх, и вообще, в техничных частях, это разве красиво? 🙈 Мне кажется это извращение. Это получается примерно так, если бы мы ехали в соседний город не на машине а на ослике... Лично я до конца дослушать не смог 🤷♂️
Есть несколько причин использовать натуральную валторну для этого произведения. Во-первых, мы можем услышать и испытать произведение таким, каким его ожидал услышать композитор, и таким, каким его услышали люди того времени. В этом смысле использование натуральную валторну более точно соответствует духу музыки, чем использование современую валторну. Во-вторых, инструмент и техника, необходимая для игры на нем, воспроизводят звуки, не производимые современным музыкантом, играющим на клапанном инструменте.
@@Arturhorn69 (sorry don't have russian keyboard) Weber wrote this piece for natural horn. therefore saying that playing solo on natural horn is "borsch" is just wrong.
@@somebody9033 понимаете, композиторы рех времён, писали музыку для духовых на перспективу, что будет когда-нибудь инструмент позволяющий играть хроматические звуки, как и для других музыкальных инструментов, вот поэтому я и написал, что в наше время, какой смысл играть на несовершенных инструментах, когда есть современные, согласны?
@@Arturhorn69 I don't agree, sorry. There were few composers who wrote music with the intention of people building instruments especially for their music (think Wagner, with his contrabass trombones and Wagnertuben, or Strauss, with his heckelphone to Low F). Weber was not in that mindset. Valves were only invented 15 years after Weber wrote this, when he was writing this, no-one had thought of the concept yet.
It’s very good but i have to say, not perfect. You failed at the end and i can understand it, i’m too a horn player but next time please do not fail anymore at least the ends 😂 I’m waiting for a better version!
come on, post a better version. I know it will be hard for you... (Javier is one of the best horn players in the world, so I don't see how you could even come close)
Fantàstic! Sempre disposat a anar un poc més lluny! Moltes gràcies!❤

Have you heard Anthony Halstead's recording for this? In my opinion that's still the best one for natural horn

Incredible! I am a huge fan of period instruments and this is by far my favorite historically accurate recording of this piece.
This is incredible! All those colour changes and phrasing... truly exceptional
1:07 Soft half stopped/ muted notes like these.. That's why people loved the natural horn so much beside the sexy stopped suspended notes! 😍

Very, very well! Sound, intonation, ambrosure! Right hand looks easy! Greetings from Serbia :)

Tocar ese instrumento debe ser muy difícil. Pero hacerlo como solista, y con tal maestría, es casi sobrehumano. ¡Maravilloso! Larga vida, Señor Bonet.
I guess Im pretty randomly asking but do anybody know of a good place to stream newly released movies online?
@Rodney Patrick Flixportal =)
@Lincoln Judson Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :D I really appreciate it !!
@Rodney Patrick You are welcome xD

Well, that's the single most impressive thing I'm going to see for quite a while. Bravo!
HOOOOOOOOOW this man is such a mad lad
Oh my God, it's so incredible. I love it 😍.
Thanks for this great moment. Bravo 👏 !
ART EDUCATION from France
Been listening to Javier since I was just a wee first year in university all bright eyed and bushy bell'd
You’re a great hornist, naturally.
awesome pun
Javier is the total Master of Le Cor !!
Extraordinary skill. Love the variations of the variations. A true virtuoso.
And with all repeats! You, sir, are a beast!!
Absolutely amazing!
Wow! Those were the best multiphonics I have heard someone play in this piece. Amazing work, Javier :)
Multiphonics begin around 11:30
He secretly swapped in Albert Mangelsdorff as a stunt double for that section. 🤣
What a sound!!!!!!!!! Great playing.
Como siempre, bravo Javi!
Beautifully played, and quite honestly, better performed than everyone else who has recorded this on a double or triple horn. Incredible phrasing; just beautifully performed music. Thank you!!
Absolutely brilliant!!!
Fantastic Javier !!
Outstanding performance
Impresionante, magnífico, bravissimo! Simply amazing! Long life Javier Bonet.
Wonderful technique coupled with a very sensitive interpretation made this performance a joy to hear. Thank you
Fantastic performance! Congratulations 👏
Incredibile technique!!
Spettacolare, bravissimo, eccellente professionista!
jamais entendu ce concerto avec un "natural horn" , incroyable , splendide
7:51 So sweet.....
Qué cosa más impresionante... me quedé sin palabras...
Unglaublich!! Fantastisch!!
Amazing!
Splendide. Bravissimo.
You could've told this this was a natural horn masterclass and I would've believed you.
bravoooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
i love your sound!!!😢
fenomenalissimo
Guau. What a ride. Maravilloso.

정말 아름답습니다

Erstaunlich, wie Javier Bonet das Konzert auf dem Naturhorn spielt, das ja auf dem Ventilhorn schon schwer genug ist!

@@Apfelstrudl Das ist sicher richtig, ich als Posaunist kann das sicher nicht beurteilen.
top quality
Como pode? Não tem chaves, e ele toca maravilhosamente bem!
WOW!!!!!
Wonderful performances; thank you for sharing. Could someone post the time stamps for the various movements (as applicable)?
8:35 Oooo I like those additional notes!
IMPRESSIONNANTE PRESTATION SUR UN COR NATUREL DU JAMAIS ENTENDU ME CONCERNANT....!!!
단연 최고네요 ㅋ~~~
Oh my god!
when he starts harmonizing with himself and the conductor looks over to see how many french horn soloists there are...
People don t imagine the difficulty of that D# at the final of the concert
Especially at the end it's so difficult!!
inimitable....
So natural you don't even notice it is a natural horn!
Bravo!! Puedes recommender alguno método para los multifonicos para la voz mujer? No lo puedo hacer con las notas escritas.

What's the crook tone used for this piece? Outstanding performance.
Horn in E, of course!
miraculous!!
did he play double notes at the same time?? from 11.12 on??
Yes with the voice. Had to think both notes in the same time...
Is this a valvectomy natural horn? By looking at the way the pipes are coiled it seems loke it could be.
Regardless, outstanding performance!
It's a cor solo, not cor d'orchestre
Super gut dass dies auf dem Naturhorn möglich ist. Waldhorn ist doch das beste Blasinstrument.
Nicht nur möglich.. Es wurde nur dafür geschrieben und liegt dort auch um einiges besser als am F- oder B-Horn, sofern man das naturhorn als eigenständiges Instrument wirklich beherrscht.
Baumann, Javier, tuckwell,brain
The 'natural horn' must be excruciatingly difficult to play in tune.
Who the fuck is coughing on purpose on the final D# ??? -.-
Jo! Yo no soy músico ni sé nada de trompa, y se me ponen los pelos como escarpias. ¿Quién puede marcar esto con un no me gusta?
La envidia es muy cochina querido Salvador
Look! I can play this with one lip tied behind my teeth.
