I took a copy to Seoul Korea when I was stationed there in 1971 with the Eighth Army Band. but when I played a few concerts with the Seoul Sinfonietta I gave that copy to the first horn player in that chamber group. My little contribution to international good will. So I was without that book for many years. until my interest in playing the horn resurfaced. and then I was pleased to find it published in a smaller format. suitable for carrying around with other music. Mr. Farkas was a very good man. and a meticulous player and teacher. He could be accused of occasionally "overthinking" (such as where he gets a little obsessive about too much pressure and recommends trying to play the horn without using your hands as it sits on a slippery surface). but the foundations of his instruction are solid. As my ability increases. I am still now finding little jewels in his book that. with a more mature perspective and increased understanding. help me to develop even further.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Must have for horn playersBy CarolDoesnt matter if youre a beginner. intermediate horn player. or an expert everyone can benefit from reading this book. Is it outdated? Sure. maybe a little. but this is still the bible of horn playing and a must read. This book has helpful information regarding pretty much all aspects of horn playing: types of horns. practicing information. types of mouthpieces. mechanics of the horn. practicing techniques. hand positions and placements. tuning. warm-ups. diagrams. embouchure. performance etiquette and tips. breathing. just general pointers and other miscellaneous. virtually everything! This is a great book for any horn player to reference or refer to. I constantly finding myself going back and re-reading sections whenever I have a question or a problem arises. This book really teaches you and helps you become a better horn player. The pictures and diagrams in the book are super helpful so you can get a visual of what your supposed to be doing and correct any bad habits or mistakes you may be making. In addition to all the information this book has I love that it also includes a section of warmups to practice. I would definitely recommend practicing these warmups everyday for at least 10 minutes. although I would do them for about 30 minutes. and youll see almost instantly an improvement in your range. and your tone. your ability in moving your fingers. your overall quality of playing. and even your sight reading! If theres one book you buy for your instrument I suggest and encourage it be this one. Life changing for a French horn player.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. All-around Guide to Playing French HornBy Anthony M BarnesThis is the best and most comprehensive guide to the French horn for an experienced musician. It requires a fair level of expertise in several advanced subjects. notably transposition. Otherwise most chapters are devoted to the mechanics of playing a French horn with topics like mouthpiece placement and mouthpiece pressure. fingering. a few well known practice etudes. and some discussion of beginner horn.
