Fabulous job!!! As a horn player, I know from the inside just how difficult the Konzertstück is, for each part, not just the lead. These guys performed it brilliantly, and let's not forget the orchestra's fine playing as well. The tempos were quite brisk, yet the ensemble playing was dead on and everyone made it seem effortless. Bravo, bravissimo!

[ChrisHessert]

That was fantastic! Well done by the Horn section, top to bottom!

[lightspeed]

I have to agree that this is the best rendition ever. I should say that this is an outstanding performance. Outstanding horn players. Especially, considering how difficult this is to play. Schumann would have been very proud. Thank you so much for uploading this magnificent concert.

Sie haben mir eine große Freude gemacht! An Leib und Seele gestärkt, kann ich jetzt meinen Weg durch den Tag getrost fortsetzen.

[Emrla]

Remarkable performance ! The standard for horn playing has grown immensely over the past years.

[MoosikofMaine]

The best rendition I‘be ever heard. The first horn is fabulous. I love the zeal they play with.

[AlgyPug]

A fantastic performance of one of the most difficult works in the concert repertoire. The ensemble was marvellous and they looked as though they were having fun.

I don't think I've ever heard a better performance!

[waynelutton]

This orchestra never disappoints! A fine performance. I doubt any of us will experience a better one anywhere. Thanks, again, Frankfurt Radio, for sharing this.

Nice to see what the inside of the "Old Opera" looks like. In the mid-1970's, while I was stationed in Germany in the army, I attended numerous opera performances at the so- called "Tin-Can Opera House". I even go to see a concert performance of "Norma" from the upper balcony for 4 marks. Of course, I couldn't see half the stage!

That’s what I call perfection 👌Marvellous!

[seuradu]

The most beautiful concerto ever written for brass instruments.

[westminster]

I really love this recording for how well we can hear the lower horn parts. They sound so beautiful.

[ronaldbwoodall]

Brilliantly energetic, delightfully melodic music expertly performed by all Schumann's music has an inevitable and irresistible flow captured perfectly here. Bravo to all!

[Alexhorn]

I like this performance very much. Very good horn quartet, very balanced, extreme good clearity in the performance, lot of musical energy and not playing as loud as possible!!!

[georgey]

How can ANYONE not love Schumann as a composer???

[genejones]

An outstanding performance by this uber talented team of hornists. Maybe the best rendition I've heard!

[totibro]

Wow, what a performance! I loved it ❤
