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 this edition is based.
