SCHUMANN, Robert

Adagio and Allegro for horn and piano in A flat major op. 70 (transcription for viola and piano)

I. Adagio

Hariolf Schlichtig, guest professor

Samuel David Palomino Kingjler, student

Juan Barahona, accompanying pianist

First, the professor Schilichtig corrects the student's position, the right arm movement and the position of the elbow in relation to the contact point of the bow. He also refers to the position of the fingertips: it is very important that they feel the contact with the bow and use it correctly (which leads to them feeling more contact with the sound).
Then there are some explanations and corrections on shifts, phrasing, relaxation, and sound maintenance without stopping the bow, bow changes and expression.
