I played French Horn in high school and unfortunately stopped before my criminally negligent teachers showed me this. The most perfect use for the horn ever and brings tears to my eyes almost every time. Thank you and enjoy!

We played this for my youth orchestra last year and it was such a beautiful job well done by our French horn that played the beginning solo! ❤️

I played french horn for years and this was my all time favorite part to play. This part of the song is still part of my life. It's so peaceful and calming that when ever I'm crashing with anger or anxiety I hum this to myself and it centers me back to peace.

One of the most beautiful themes in history of music!
Well played!
I love Strawinsky.

We did a marching band show with the ending of firebird as our closer and had a mellophone player do this solo and it was so nice

[elifarmer]

i am currently attempting to recreate a realistic french horn sound using modeled instruments, your videos are great reference for achieving a beautiful tone

[josiahrogers]

I plays firebird for the finale of my marching band show, ready to see if I can pump it out on a real horn when my concert season rolls around

[Trombobrer]
