Adagio and Allegro is one of the first works of major importance written for the valve horn. The original title was Romance and Allegro and it was composed during the first few months of 1849, a period when Schumann also composed solo works for oboe and piano, clarinet and piano, as well as the Konzertstucke for four horns and orchestra.

  • June 02, 2007 Very Difficult, but an error

    This is a very difficult, yet rewarding solo. However this edition does contain one error, It should be noted that the second note of measure 41 should be an Ab instead of a Bb. Not sure why Tuckwell changed this or if it was a copyist's error.

  • February 15, 2007 Difficult but worth it.

    As a horn solo this one will test just about every aspect of horn playing. The most important part of a sucessful preformance (besides about 7 years of correct playing techniques)is the ability to take deep breaths and relax. This peice is a common senior recital selection for horn...

    preformance majors at my university.

  • July 13, 2006 The best horn solo I ever mastered.

    This is one TOUGH piece! It was one of the first horn solo's ever written not to mention tough. I had the range for this piece and I think it is a very advanced challenge. It all depends on your embouchre and air.

  • October 13, 2004 Great for a 25 year player

    The first time I played this, I was 13 years old. I won 1st prize at the National Horn Convention in New York. I am now happily principal horn of ANONYMOUS Philharmonic. I play this all the time. Only, it is fully made for an advanced horn player.
