Clapisson, A. – 12 Horn duets with 3 variated Airs – RARE

Description

A. Clapisson (father to Louis Clapisson) : 12 Petits Duos pour 2 Cors, dont 3 Airs Variés, dedicated to his pupils. Edited by Meissonnier in 1821. Two complete parts. Strangely, the second horn part has a different title hand-written on its cover (16 Duos par Poussez) but it is actually the music of Clapisson inside. Stamp of the editor on the first part’s cover.

Very rare, beautiful music and very interesting writing for natural horn, especially for the second part which demands great mastery. Performed for the first time in September 2024 by Nicolas Roudier and Stefan Blonk. I am selling them only in separate bindings and cleaned.
