This original solo for Eb Tenor Horn and piano, composed by Andrew Duncan, has proved to be a welcome addition to the solo repertoire.

Written to demonstrate both the technical and lyrical sides of the Horn, the piece begins with a fast, bright (slightly Latin) section.  This gives way to an expressive legato tune which, first played by the Soloist, is then taken up by the whole band.  The central section, Andante, allows the soloist to really sing out and, following a short cadenza, the opening material returns to lead into an exciting Coda section.
