For those who are new to an instrument, the first question is often where to start? The 'Best Loved' series offers an easy answer to that question and a perfect introduction to the wonderful, varied world of classical music. Spotlighting individual instruments in some of the best-loved pieces ever written, and with a mix of solo, chamber and orchestral works, the series provides a convenient introduction to classical music's infinite variety of instrumental sounds and styles. The focus in these releases is a light and relaxed approach, rather than academic and theoretical a joyful exploration and celebration of individual instrumental sounds. The present is a showcase of the horn. Album Tracks 1. Concertstück in F Major, Op. 86 Schumann, Robert - Classical Composer 2. 1. Concertstück in F Major, Op. 86 I. Lebhaft 0 3.
