It is George Martin's centenary. Here is a short video, celebrating the great producer, and alumnus of Guildhall School of Music & Drama, where I teach composition, who discovered the Beatles in 1962, and whose brilliant and inventive production was a key part of the collaborative genius of the Beatles' studio albums in the 1960s. He was also responsible, at the beginning, for the bold, knife-edge decision, in audition in 1962, to gamble on the band when everyone else had rejected them.

The short excerpt of the horn solo in the video comes from the 1984 movie 'Give My Regards to Broad Street'. The horn player is Jeff Bryant, ex-principal of the London Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, LSO etc. Jeff too was a professor at the Guildhall School of music and Drama in London.

An account of the original recording says "Alan Civil was a distinguished horn player for decades, but is most renowned for one evening of session work. He was the principal horn player in the Philharmonia when George Martin called him to ask if he could provide the French horn obligato on a Beatles song. For the instrumental break of 'For No One' Civil played the melancholy French horn solo, something he recalled as difficult to come up with since the Beatles weren’t clear about what they wanted, and because the track had been taped in the cracks between B-flat and B-major. Still, he did his job well, and is also heard briefly in the background near the end of the song. It was actually the third studio session he’d played on that day."
