First, I would like to thank my horn professor Christopher M. Smith for his guidance throughout this project. I would also like to thank my committee Dr. Lisa Rogers and Professor James T. Decker for their advice and for taking the time to attend my recitals and review this document. Additionally, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my previous horn professors at Capital University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, each of whom played a critical role in the completion of my Doctoral degree. I am grateful to my professor at Capital University, Kimberly M. McCann, for believing in my abilities and pushing me to reach my potential, especially when I was unsure of myself. I would also like to thank Bernhard Scully at the University of Illinois for helping me develop my musicianship and encouraging me to pursue my doctorate. Finally, I want to thank my wife, Kay Hewetson, for her unbelievable patience, encouragement, and support. Additionally, I would also like to thank her for her performance on my chamber recital of works for flute, horn, and piano, a recital from which this final document stemmed. Without her, this would not have been possible. !ii Texas Tech University, Ian Paul Hewetson, May 2019 TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgments. ii Abstract. vii I.

Since this time, the genre has slowly grown to a remarkable size for a relatively unknown chamber group. It is the goal of this document to explore the works written for this instrumentation, provide a resource for others looking for new chamber music to perform, help this genre continue to grow through new commissions, and encourage others to explore more unknown genres of music. This document is divided into three major sections. The first section contains the justification for this study, the limitations which were set, a review of the relevant sources utilized in the completion of this project, and the methodology used. The second section is an annotated bibliography of the 30 original works written for flute, horn, and piano which were found as of December 2018. In this section, this author investigates characteristics of each work that would allow the readers to decide if the work would be suitable for their ensembles. Aspects investigated include: the date of composition, if known; the birth and death dates of the composer, if known; the name of the publisher and year of publication; the current cost to purchase the work; the dedication of the work, if known; the duration of the work, estimated if no recordings exist; the list of definitive recordings of the work, definitive describing a recording made by the commissioning artists or a recording done by record label, and the range required of both the flute and horn performers. In addition to these aspects, a brief biographical sketch of each composer is included to give the reader context for each composition. Following each biographical sketch is a brief description of each work’s contents. !vi Texas Tech University, Ian Paul Hewetson, May 2019 The third section contains final conclusions and implications for further research on the topic of works for flute, horn, and piano. Punctuating this document are two appendices. A chart of all the works found by this author that feature flute and horn, including arrangements, transcriptions, and works containing other accompanying ensembles is found in each appendix. The first chart contains these works organized alphabetically by the composer’s last name, and the second chart is the same information organized alphabetically by the title of the composition. !vii Texas Tech University, Ian Paul Hewetson, May 2019 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Justification for the Study Just as in life, chamber music by its very nature brings out issues such as hierarchy, balances, choices, and sometimes one must encourage a shy personality to speak up or ask another to follow instead of lead. A 17-year-old student and a 90-year-old veteran can play together. People from different socio-economic, and political views can put that aside for a common purpose. Musicians of all levels can work as a team.1 It is the belief of this author that educating young musicians about chamber music is critical to their development. Teaching the skills necessary to be an effective chamber musician helps to mold students into effective critical listeners and efficient communicators, while opening their eyes to the subtle nuances other instruments can create. Chamber music allows the students to develop these skills in an intimate setting, allowing for more effective feedback from mentors. In turn, these newly developed skills can then be applied in large ensemble settings and, in the case of future music educators, their own rehearsals. The genre of flute, horn, and piano is comprised of a myriad of works in various styles and of vastly differing difficulties, all of which have merit in the education of developing musicians. It is for these reasons this author feels they should be known by those in the professional world. The intent of this document is to provide easier access of these works to teachers looking for new chamber music for their students as well as professionals who might be looking for new pieces to include in a concert series. This in 1Paul Colletti, Why I Play Chamber Music: 19 String Players Talk About their Passion for Playing in Small Ensembles, February 5, 2015, http://stringsmagazine.com/why-i-play- chamber-music/. !1 Texas Tech University, Ian Paul Hewetson, May 2019 turn will help educate students beyond the scope of typical, established chamber ensembles like the woodwind or brass quintet, hopefully encouraging these students to continue to explore new and exciting opportunities in chamber music. Ultimately, this author hopes this will promote this young but versatile ensemble to become an established and sought-after chamber group. Limitations of the Study The scope of this study is limited to original compositions written specifically for the instrumentation of flute, horn, and piano. This list does include pieces which have been reworked by the composer to fit this requirement. While there are many arrangements and transcriptions which exist for this instrumentation, these works have not been included. Any additional works involving flute and horn located during this study have been included in appendix A and B. This study also only includes works which are published and readily accessible to be obtained by the general public through retailers or library-sharing sources. The various recordings referenced in this document are those found either on professionally-produced compact disc recordings or of live performances of the commissioning artists. Review of Relevant Sources The task of locating works for flute, horn, and piano for this project was no small feat. This endeavor is ongoing and will likely continue as these pieces gain more esteem. Each composition in this study was uncovered through the use of various sources including video and audio recordings like YouTube and Soundcloud, as well as various sheet music retailer websites including Sheet Music Plus, Groth Music, Eble Music, Flute World, The FlutePage, McCoy’s Horn Library, and Thompson Edition.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS and POLYPHONY
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS AND POLYPHONY: THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF HIGH SCHOOL BAND STUDENTS AND THEIR DIRECTOR AS THEY PREPARE FOR AN ADJUDICATED PERFORMANCE Stephen W. Miles Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Francine Hultgren Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership College of Education University of Maryland This hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry is called by the question: What are the lived experiences of high school band students and their director as they prepare for an adjudicated performance? While there are many lenses through which the phenomenon of music preparation and music making has been explored, a relatively untapped aspect of this phenomenon is the experience as lived by the students themselves. The experiences and behaviors of the band director are so inexorably intertwined with the student experience that this essential contextual element is also explored as a means to understand the phenomenon more fully. Two metaphorical constructs – one visual, one musical – provide a framework upon which this exploration is built. As a prism refracts a single color of light into a wide spectrum of hues, views from within illumine a variety of unique perspectives and uncover both divergent and convergent aspects of this experience. Polyphony (multiple contrasting voices working independently, yet harmoniously, toward a unified musical product) enables understandings of the multiplicity of experiences inherent in ensemble performance. Conversations with student participants and their director, notes from my observations, and journal offerings provide the text for phenomenological reflection and interpretation. The methodology underpinning this human science inquiry is identified by Max van Manen (2003) as one that “involves description, interpretation, and self-reflective or critical analysis” (p.

  • Adrienne Albert
    Piccolodeon for Piccolo and Piano Adrienne Albert PICCOLODEON is a duet for piccolo and piano that expresses the mood and sonority of the “Nickelodeon,” an early 20th-century arcade instrument used for silent movies, carousels, and vaudeville theatre. The Piccolodeon piece begins as a playful ragtime with the instruments in sync. Gradually, the ensemble unravels to the point for Piccolo and Piano where it’s a toss-up as to which player is off. This musical gem is full of surprise and delight! ADRIENNE ALBERT began her musical career as a singer and collaborator with composers including Igor Stravinsky, Leonard Bernstein, and Philip Glass. She began composing her own music in the 1990s. Adrienne’s chamber, orchestral, choral, vocal, and band works are extensively performed throughout the world. She has received awards including grants and prizes from the National Endowment for the Arts, American Composers Forum, MTC/Rockefeller Foundation, and numerous other organizations. Ms. Albert’s commissions have come from music schools, soloists, universities, and chamber ensembles. She has been Composer-In-Residence at California State University at Fresno, and California State University at Sacramento. Her music is recorded on the Albany, Naxos, Centaur, MRS, Navona, Little Piper, and ABC Classics labels. Also available by Adrienne Albert: ACROSS THE C’S for Mixed Flute Quintet ACROSS THE C’S is an original work by the celebrated American composer Adrienne Albert. This 6-minute work was commissioned by the Norwegian quintet “5 på Tvers/5 Across” who traveled across the seas to premiere the work at the 2015 NFA convention. In addition to the beautiful flowing feel of an ocean crossing, the music begins and ends with a special sonority of winds blowing on the open sea.
