Customer Reviews Great French Horn sound! This is music at it's best and very easy to listen too. I love French Horn and I love this CD. It is soothing, relaxing and mellow! . If Edith Piaf had been a horn player... It may well be that the use of vibrato was more widespread in Europe in the 19th century than it is today, thus giving an air of authenticity to these recordings. Just a note on the criticism of vibrato: These recordings must be heard with their cultural context in mind; they are excellent examples of the French style of playing which is famous for its lyricism, light sound and rapid, pronounced vibrato (Georges Barboteau is one of the greatest modern exponents of this style). Despite their often widely differing tonal and lyrical characteristics, you'll still hear a good deal of vibrato in the national styles of Czech (the French style is supposed to have been established by Bohemian players imported by Louis XIV), Russian, East German, French, and Italian styles of horn playing. All a matter of taste (or lack thereof) and acculturation. Fabulous French Horns I am now an avid fan of the french horn. I am not a musician, but a music lover and just happened to stumble upon this magnificent CD by accident. If you can get your hands on a copy, buy it! Enjoy. .
