A Song for Forgiveness

Horn Quartet/Grade 4

This four-part song for horn quartet is one that focuses on consonant dissonance and call and response. Inspired primarily by the human voice, the wide range of the horn is explored in all parts whilst ascending towards the climax. The theme of forgiveness is explored through call and response sections throughout.

This song ends as it begins, this time with closure. Remaining relatively hopeful throughout, there are multiple moments in which the horns get to shine as individuals as well as an ensemble. This piece may also be performed by a horn choir.
