Consortium:
Horn Concerto in Eb
(Ensemble:
Grade 5 difficulty/Soloist: Grade 6+ difficulty)
"Horn Concerto
in Eb"
will be a 17-20 minute composition consisting of three movements.
There will be versions for Horn + Wind Ensemble, Horn + Chamber
Orchestra, and Horn + Piano.
This concerto will be primarily grounded in traditional Western
classical music, but it will also
reflect my Armenian ancestry and will be significantly influenced by
Middle Eastern musical traditions.
The horn part will be heavily microtonal (a brief guide and suggested
fingerings will be provided),
though the ensemble parts and
piano reduction will not include any microtones.
David
Byrd-Marrow is the featured horn soloist and will give the first
public
performance:
David will be available for hire as a soloist for large ensembles: you
may contact
him
