This video shows Annamia Eriksson playing Siegfried's horn call (from the opera Siegfried). This horn call wakes up Fafner, the dragon. The video is part of a promo for a production of the Ring at the Royal Swedish Opera. Annamia Eriksson plays the part very well, with rich nuances.
I like these kind of promotional stunts from opera companies. It is surprisingly few that show creative powers to reach out to the audience (and potential audience). Wake up, lads - it's 2008.

A English horn solo from Tristan und Isolde can be heard in this clip

The way you play Siegfried's horn call is absolutely perfect - amazing, you are definitely excellent. I am using your video for a Wagner presentation I am doing for my MA. Well done, you certainly make Wagner proud, if not music.
