Eb Tenor Horn Duet with Piano Accompaniment
Jacques Offenbach’s beautiful Barcarolle from Act II of Les Contes d’Hoffmann.
Duet parts played by Kevin Ackford
Bb Cornet, Bb Flugelhorn, Bb Baritone (TC), Bb Trombone (TC) or Bb Euphonium (TC) with piano accompaniment
A stunning melody inspired by the view a clear blue sky and mist in a valley while driving to work one morning.
Written for Kevin’s Partner Barbara “An Huni a Garav” translates from the cornish language as “The one that I Love.”
This Beautiful melody will well into any concert programme.
Tenor Horn Legend Gordon Higginbottom described it as: “A lovely piece, a nice change to have a good melody not ruined by loads of twiddly bits, a real beauty.”
From Claudio Monteverdi’s opera L’incoronazione di Poppea. First performed in Venice during 1643, this duet has been popular on many charts compiled by Classic FM and has been described as “one of the most romantic duets of all time.”
