Fifteen Moravian Folk Songs for Horn and Piano by Leos Janacek Horn - Sheet Music

By Leos Janacek
Horn and Piano

SKU: CY.CC3954

Composed by Leos Janacek. Arranged by Ralph Sauer. 20th Century Czech. Solo part and Piano accompaniment. Cherry Classics #CC3954. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC3954).

These are fifteen short, but intense works by Leos Janácek, who wrote so beautifully for the Horn, but composed no solo music for it. This music is indeed a great gift to the Horn solo literature by Mr. Sauer. These pieces can be performed by intermediate to advanced performers and are about 9 minutes total in length.
Below are a few notes from the arrangement by Ralph Sauer.
Originally for solo piano, the Fifteen Moravian Folksongs are remarkable for their musicality as well as their brevity - the only notated, repeated passage in the entire work is in Number 5. Because Janácek included the text in his piano score (with no indication that it should be sung), and the fact that there are, in many cases, indications that the text is only a first verse, I have included some additional repeats.
The mp3 sound sample is from a recital at the 2012 Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara. Performance by Ralph Sauer, trombone and Natasha Kislenko, piano.
