Composer credit and title variants

Two scores listed as Huntsman's Chorus name C. M. von Weber as composer, while a third gives no composer credit. Some titles add “in Dr. Freyschutz”; treat that phrase as part of the score’s title rather than as independent proof of the work’s history. Check the specific credit on the score you intend to use.

Opening key, metre and tempo

The scores described here show an opening key signature of two sharps (D major) and a 2/4 time signature. One score also records an opening tempo of 100 BPM. These details describe the beginning of those scores; they do not establish that every version or arrangement uses the same key, metre or tempo throughout.

What the listings do not establish

The score listings do not identify instrumentation or voicing, and no authoritative reference available for this page confirms the work’s origin or its exact relationship to Der Freischütz. Those points remain open rather than settled by the title alone.

A practical way to compare

Choose between the versions by checking the composer credit, the exact title wording and any opening tempo marking. If you need a particular key, tempo, instrumentation or voicing, verify it on the score itself rather than assuming it from the shared title.

Who is credited with composing Huntsman's Chorus?

Two of the scores listed as Huntsman's Chorus name C. M. von Weber as composer, while a third gives no composer credit. The attribution therefore differs between versions, and the composer name on the specific score should be checked before use.

What key and time signature do the Huntsman's Chorus scores open in?

What tempo is given for Huntsman's Chorus?

One score gives an opening tempo of 100 BPM. The other listed versions do not include a tempo marking, so 100 BPM should be treated as that score’s opening tempo rather than a required tempo for every version.

Does “in Dr. Freyschutz” confirm that Huntsman's Chorus comes from Der Freischütz?

The phrase “in Dr. Freyschutz” appears in some score titles, which points toward Der Freischütz, but the exact relationship remains unverified. Treat the phrase as title wording and check an authoritative edition or reference before relying on the connection.

What instrumentation or voicing do the Huntsman's Chorus scores use?

The score listings do not identify instrumentation or voicing, so a musician should check the individual score before choosing it for a particular instrument, choir or ensemble. The title alone does not establish those details.
