I thought that today I would introduce a piece which I practice frequently and is a neat piece. It is a musical depiction by Richard Strauss of the German legendary character and his pranks.
The opening solo is a french horn solo (which is what I play) and is heroic at times, yet comical and deceptive. As I play this solo, I think of a young teenager sneaking around playing practical jokes on people. If you listen to the full piece, at the end you can hear Till be brought to justice for all his pranks (but Strauss leaves us wondering if he escapes...check it out!).
Hope you enjoy the clip!
