About

This arrangement of the popular “Hunters' Chorus” from the opera Der Freischütz by Carl Maria von Weber for horn sextet has been a favourite feature for large ‘flash mob’ horn ensembles over many years. This arrangement for horn sextet was written for the Pacific Music Festival Horns in 2017 and Sarah Willis who was their horn tutor.

In its larger horn octet version, it was used by the Berlin Philharmonic Horns in their “Ho, Ho, Horn” Christmas concert on the Digital Concert Hall in 2016. 

More recently it was recorded by the Berlin Philharmonic Horns (in its octet form) during an online concert in 2022. The recording can be found on YouTube.

Also available is a version for Horn Octet (DE 0010)

Formed as part of the popular Mozart y Mambo project by Sarah Willis of the Berlin Philharmonic, the Sarahbanda explores the captivating Cuban dance rhythms in a way never heard before. How? By featuring an instrument not typically included in traditional Cuban band music — the French horn. The sound of Sarah's horn combined with Cuban grooves played by some of Cuba's most talented musicians creates an exciting and passionate group unlike any other. With their exclusive new arrangements of some of Cuba’s best-known songs such as Chan Chan and Sandunguera, original compositions by members of the band, and some classical-meets-Cuban surprises, the Sarahbanda brings a whole new sound — fresh, innovative, irresistible and one you simply have to get up and dance to!
