Complete First Horn Parts to Johannes Brahms's Major Orchestral Works is a Wind Music collection of complete first-horn parts, retaining the source notation's keys, transpositions, and language. It places familiar solo passages in the context of their complete orchestral assignments.
Contents include Symphonies Nos. 1-4; Academic Festival Overture; Tragic Overture; Variations on a Theme by Haydn; Piano Concertos Nos. 1 and 2; Violin Concerto; Double Concerto for Violin and Cello; Serenades Nos. 1 and 2; A German Requiem; Schicksalslied; Alto Rhapsody; and Hungarian Dances Nos. 1, 3, and 10-21.
The exposed horn call that opens the Second Piano Concerto is one example of the lyrical responsibility encountered in this repertoire. Reading the surrounding parts encourages preparation that includes entrances, transposition, and sustained ensemble awareness, not just isolated solos. This volume is useful for orchestral study and rehearsal preparation; it contains first-horn parts rather than full scores or the other horn parts.
Here is Brahms Symphony 3 performed by a full orchestra; this book only contains the first horn part.
