About Horn Quartet No. 1
The Horn Quartet no. 1 is a multi movement work, which explores the various textures and colors that the horn is capable of producing. There are sections, such as the beginning, which are atmospheric and almost dream-like, while other sections are aggressive or even playful. Even though the piece is written with a standard type of voicing, meaning that the first part has a higher tessitura than the fourth, all parts are important and all parts are solistic.

This piece was first performed in Lutkin Hall at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, on November 18, 2009. The performers were Gail Williams, William Caballero, Thomas Bacon and William Barnewitz, who also recorded the work for Gail Williams’ album "Horn Muse" (2011)
