Written in 1949 for English hornist Louis Speyer, the beauty of this piece is just as obvious today. With varying tempos and frequent modulations, this piece takes on a life of its own. Optional parts for violin, viola, and clarinet are included, adding to the richness of the setting. This is an excellent concert choice.
