Le Cor
13 years ago
The french song Le Cor (The Horn) by A. Flegier is one of my favorite songs for basses.
This version by Ezio Pinza is the golden standard that every other performance is compared to and for a good reason as it's quite a wonderful rendition. Most basses can't handle the last notes so it's seldom performed - a real pity.
The lyrics of the song talk about the memories borne by the sound of the hunting horn. The singer remembers and weeps for the Death of Roland in the battle of Roncevaux where Roland blew his horn to call for reinforcements in a losing battle.
It'd be nice to be able to sing it someday but that's far in the future.
