New Music For Horn: Some Resources, Part II

As promised in Part I of this series, here is a list of works for horn and piano composed after 2000. This time, I found the titles by doing a subject phrase search on WorldCat for “horn and piano music.” There are a couple of caveats to both this list and the earlier list of solo horn compositions: 1) There are certainly more works out there, but they just haven’t been cataloged in the WorldCat system yet, and 2) For some of the works, particularly those by lesser-known composers, it is possible that they were written before 2000.  The reason for this is that WorldCat doesn’t always list the dates in a consistent manner.  In some cases, both a copyright date and publication date are listed, which is very helpful.  In others, only the publication date is given.  I tried to verify that all the pieces in this list were in fact composed after 2000, but there may be some errors.  Anyway, that’s enough of that.  I hope you enjoy the list, and find it useful in making creative program choices for recitals and other concerts.  As I compiled the list, I was impressed by both the amount and variety of music composed in the last decade or so.
