Larghetto for Horn and Orchestra by Alexis Emmanuel Chabrier Concert Band - Sheet Music

By Alexis Emmanuel Chabrier

In 1874 Chabrier composed the 'Larghetto for Horn and Orchestra' but it was only discovered after his death. It is often referred to as the French Horn equivalent of an operatic aria. Chabrier employs the instrument in particularly lyrical fashion. The work is so achingly expressive, in fact, one wonders whether Chabrier had some particular theme or event in mind. Rich, detailed orchestration supports the horn's melodic line. French arranger Bruno Peterschmitt transcribed this 'Larghetto' for Horn and Symphonic Band.
