Camille Saint-Saëns composed his two Romances for Horn for two of the most respected French horn players of the time: Opus 67 in E major from 1866 is dedicated to Henri Chaussier; Opus 36 in F major from 1874 was written for Henri Garigue. Despite the illustrious recipients, they are not virtuosic showpieces but – as the term Romance suggests – short “Songs without words”. Alongside the orchestral version, Saint-Saëns also prepared a piano accompaniment for chamber music performances. The first editions even also had an alternative part for violoncello, on which our edition is based.

Reviews
Die Henle-Ausgabe hebt dieses und andere Details hervor und ordnet sie vorbildlich in einen größeren Kontext ein. In Verbindung mit einem sehr gut spielbaren Klavierauszug entsteht so ein hervorragender Gesamteindruck.
[Ensemble, 2013]
Dominik Rahmer, seit 2011 Lektor beim Henle Verlag und Spezialist für französische Musik, hat die beiden Romanzen meisterhaft herausgegeben und dem Repertoire für Profi-Hornisten, aber auch fortgeschrittene Schüler diese Werke quasi neu geschenkt.
[Sonic, 2013]
The notes in Henle's Urtext edition are as usual, thorough and interesting. (...) Two copies of the cello part have been included in Henle's fine publication; one clean and the other lightly edited. Both are delightful works to add to the cellist's repertoire.
