Courage is written for horn players who are already brave enough to show it — and for those who are still learning to be.
Whether a student feels confident or anxious, this piece offers a musical space to grow into inner strength.
The work features frequent use of bouché (stopped horn) technique and expressive tempo changes, while keeping the range and rhythmic demands accessible for early intermediate players. Musical challenges are introduced in a supportive way, encouraging focus, control, and emotional engagement.
Courage is well suited for recitals, auditions, competitions, as well as lesson settings that aim to support emotional growth through performance.
Written by a horn teacher — for real students, real lessons, and real emotion.
Duration: approx. 2:45
Level: Early Intermediate
Teacher Tip:
Before playing, ask students to say their full name aloud and listen to how the sound reaches the farthest point of the room. Use this simple exercise to introduce projection as a sense of presence and intention, encouraging students to carry the musical message confidently through the entire piece — not through volume alone, but through clarity, direction, and focus.
“You don’t just play Courage — you grow into it.”
