THE ROMANTIC ALBUM FOR HORN AND PIANO is a collection that reflects late 19th century composers’ fascination with the valved horn. 16 pieces by 16 composers, most long out of print, will add a welcome freshness to timeworn recital programs.

THE HORN CALL May 2015
(International Horn Society)
„A significant contribution to short to medium length 19th-century recital repertoire … this volume is a complete success, and a testimony to great research and care in presenting a wonderful edition. It will provide some wonderful alternatives to our old favorites by Strauss and Gliere."
THE HORN PLAYER Winter 2014/15
(British Horn Society)
„…As he always does, Bill provides superlative biographical detail on all of these composers, often with incipits of the original title pages – a detail that I find quite delightful. ... But then the music – all beautifully (and practically) printed and every single piece musically worth more than a casual glance. As a low horn player I also found that the horn lines were comfortable – a point not to be underestimated for players drafting a recital or examination programme. All in all, a garnering of rich horn music resources that all of us ought to be deeply grateful to Bill for – 'Hats off' indeed!"
