I am sitting here practicing the original notation part to the
Introduction to Act III of the Opera Lohengrin. It starts in G horn
in the first measure and switches to E horn on the third beat of
measure 2. Later to G, back to E, then D and later A-flat horn.
I am wondering if the rest of the opera has that many rapid changes?
Why would it be written so?
If I remember correctly, Wagner used this notation because it was what
J.R. Lewy used for some valve horn exercises.
