    This is absolutely wonderful! I wish my high school had an English horn, because I have an extreme desire to play the instrument. It just sounds so much more beautiful and stronger than just the oboe!

    By far the best english horn video on the internet! This has to be my favorite double reed video on the internet!

    Wow...that was just lovely. I especially thought 4:36 to 4:51 was awesome. I've never listened to an English Horn before and was just captivated through this whole performance. Thanks for posting and also for the high quality recording !!

    Very nice. Always thought this instrument could make some sad sounding melodies. Also romantic.

    Beautiful,beautiful. Superb soft,sound. I play oboe,but,have,so far not extended to the Cor Anglais. This presentation may help me make a decision to advance my practice skills,....AND, save some more $$$$.

    Wonderful job, Althea! I've always loved the English horn (maybe because I was a violist for almost two decades) and you really make it sound good! Everyone I've ever known who's played English horn to any extent always complains about how hard it is to play well and to play in tune, but your playing makes it sound like an easy instrument! Keep up the good work!

    @Wolfoxtail you don't really have to "switch", you can play both! English horn is so beautiful and fun to play, I'd recommend it! (but you don't have to give up oboe!)

    @oboelover95 it takes alot more wind than the oboe, you're basically playing out alot more, compared to oboe, where you're usually holding back.

  • @juanchomusic
    @juanchomusic 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SouthpawdShredder As well as the french horn, the english horn (alto oboe) is tuned in F. But it belongs to the oboe's family, like the oboe d'amore, baroque oboe, the bass oboe and he piccolo oboe.

    @MaestroTJS I love the oboe d'amore..definately the oboe of love..I just love the oboe and it family..oboe definately has a beautiful upper register...i do love the upper register of the cor..it just moves right through you..

    @oboelover95 I don't think. I don't play the oboe and the english horn, but I was told that the fingering is very similar...

    @mbrsart 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SouthpawdShredder Wha? Wow,English horn and French horn are in two different families. I'm curious to know where your band director got that comparison. The only similarity between the two is that they both sound beautiful XD

  • @piobairesicago
    @piobairesicago 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Lovely stuff. The oboe family has come a long way since the aulos and the shawm.

    wow my band director said that an engish horn is like a big french horn but its more like a big oboe! lol

  • @luv2act976
    @luv2act976 13 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @tylertoxaphene

    BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to play this peice for S&E if its available what key is it in? (concert pitch)

  • @Wolfoxtail

    i play oboe and my teacher said If I wanted to switch to e horn I could. Should I?

  • @shonix123
    @shonix123 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    well i bought my own english horn 2 weeks ago , im enjoying a lot it sound. ofrmeis easier to play than oboe

  • @MaestroTJS
    @MaestroTJS 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @jemimalamb78 Since my last comment, I've discovered another beautiful member of the oboe family: the oboe d'amore. I like it more than the regular oboe too, but about equal to the English horn. I think the regular oboe has a better upper range than these two, though, if I'm not mistaken.

  • @amyleeluvr
    @amyleeluvr 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SouthpawdShredder And if he said that, he should take a few more music classes. I am a Junior (2 years away from graduation) and I am a music major and I can honestly tell you that the English Horn sounds NOTHING like a big French Horn. Do you play one or does your band director play one?

  • @MaestroTJS
    @MaestroTJS 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    The oboe is overrated. The English horn is where it's at. :)
    (The heckelphone is awesome too.)
    Anyway, this was very, very well-performed.

  • @Lisnageeragh
    @Lisnageeragh 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SouthpawdShredder You should be careful about what that particular band director tells you!

  • @jemimalamb78
    @jemimalamb78 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @MaestroTJS oooh be careful with this comment..some cor players are oboist too!!!

  • @mytailispurple
    @mytailispurple 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    a cor anglais sounds a lot like an oboe

  • @3mikewright3
    @3mikewright3 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    Althea's playing shows a lovely sense of understanding at the deepest level. However, the piano (even on short stick) accompanying it doesn't. It sometimes tries to dominate. Handel did not have a concert grand!

  • @EpikkWin
    @EpikkWin 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    your band director clearly knows nothing about double reeds e-e

  • @examine1525
    @examine1525 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sounds nothing like a French horn. ONLY BETTER!
