Horn Concerto No. 1 in E-Flat Richard Strauss<br />
I. Allegro Trans. Charles Yeago<br />
Though mostly known for his operas and symphonic poems, Richard Strauss contributed to the<br />
repertoire of the natural horn early in his career with Concerto for Horn and Orchestra No. 1. This<br />
work, composed in 1882-3, received its world premiere on 4 March 1885 a few months prior to<br />
Strauss’s 21st birthday. Though some criticized the work as having a, “feeble lack of melody,” it has<br />
become a standard in the repertoire of horn virtuosos. Originally written for natural horn, this work<br />
gives the virtuosic player opportunity to display flexibility in range, dynamic, and technical facility.<br />
Mr. Franz Strauss, Royal Bavarian Chamber Musician and Richard Strauss’s father, was considered<br />
the greatest horn virtuoso of his time. In a fitting tribute, Richard Strauss dedicates this concerto to<br />
his father, Franz Strauss.<br />
