The last eight before 36 in the last movement of the Strauss No.2 is indeed misprinted. The "natural" after the written d# (2nd eight in the same measure= concert f#, as the part is in Eb) is missing, but we all played the right note at the end of the measure (last eight notated as d2 = f concert). I´ll have a look into the autograph score later today & let you know about).
Bozza´s "En foret", well many of us play the low "A" (concert d) as mentioned by Christopher, even it is written as one octave higher (the "a" below staff = concert "d"). Most just wanted to demonstrate, that they can play a low "A". But musically, the "a", as written by the composer is much better. He did not use the low "A", nor did he want it. And, is it really a tour de force ? It might be a tour the force for players, who have not yet developed their personal playing technique & embouchure to play this short but obviously demanding piece. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von christopher Griffin Gesendet: Sonntag, 9.

This might be opening a can of worms but does anyone know of any misprints in Strauss 2 (Boosey & Hawkes) and the Bozza En Foret (Alphonse Leduc)? I especially wanted to know about the last eighth note of the bar before 36 in the last movement of the Strauss. I'm sure it must go back to an F concert but it is printed as an F-sharp concert in both the score and the horn part. The F-sharp works in a weird kind of way. I'm also wondering what people think about going down to a low A in the second "horn call" near the end of the Bozza. It is printed as the A just below middle C. Some go down to the low A. I'm curious why, in such a tour de force, that Bozza would have written the low A anyway. Thanks in advance!
