[EN]Paul Dukas (1865-1935) wrote his 'Villanelle' as a demanding exam piece for the horn class of the Paris Conservatoire in 1906. The title, referencing a cheerful traditional vocal genre that originated in 16th century Italy, already shows that it is by no means a dry etude. Alongside the technical challenges (stopped notes, fast scales, playing without valves using natural horn techniques), the piece is successful because of its refreshing melodies, for which reason 'Villanelle' is still one of the most popular performance pieces for the horn. Dukas composed this piece originally for horn and piano but it is later orchestrated by several others. Dutch arranger Erik Somers transcribed the 'Villanelle' for Horn with accompaniment of a Symphonic Wind Orchestra.
[DE]Paul Dukas (1865-1935) schrieb seine 'Villanelle' 1906 als anspruchsvolles Prüfungsstück für die Hornklasse des Pariser Conservatoire. Der Titel, der sich auf eine heitere traditionelle Gesangsgattung bezieht, die ihren Ursprung im Italien des 16. Jahrhunderts hat, zeigt bereits, dass es sich keineswegs um eine trockene Etüde handelt. Neben den technischen Herausforderungen (gestoppte Noten, schnelle Tonleitern, Spiel ohne Ventile mit Naturhorntechnik) überzeugt das Stück durch seine erfrischenden Melodien, weshalb die Villanelle' bis heute zu den beliebtesten Vortragsstücken für das Horn zählt. Dukas komponierte dieses Stück ursprünglich für Horn und Klavier, doch wurde es später von mehreren anderen Komponisten orchestriert. Der niederländische Arrangeur Erik Somers hat die 'Villanelle' für Horn mit Begleitung eines Symphonischen Blasorchesters transkribiert.
