First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.The Hunting Horn and the Echo is a miniature scene in D major. Broad intervals and dotted rhythms suggest a call, while sudden pianissimo replies create the impression of an echo. The opening phrase presents the horn-like material in two widely spaced voices. Dotted figures and rising outlines gradually expand the call. At the end of the first section, the music becomes very soft and much less active. The short answering notes and following sustained tone supply the echo before the repeat. The second section begins more strongly with a renewed call. Its melody is varied and extended before the same sudden retreat into a soft echo brings the piece to its final pause. Interesting fact: This is No. 23 in the historical first volume, where its German title explicitly names both the forest horns and their echo.
