I'm excited to share another Holiday Bonus Episode of The Horn Call Podcast! This one features a lecture given by IHS Honorary Member Alan Civil at the 4th International Horn Symposium in 1972 at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. A few editorial notes about this archival audio:
Thanks to Dan Phillips for providing the audio file!
This recording is 50 years old, and while adequate, the quality is spotty in a few places. I've done what I can to clean it up, and it is pretty clear overall. Mr. Civil's personality and playing come through nicely, which is what matters.
The title of the lecture is "Are Conductors Afraid of Horn Players?"
The duets at the end were composed by Alan Civil, and performed by Alan Civil and Shirley Hopkins Civil.
