Composed by Rosemary Sugden Waltzer. 21st Century,Contemporary Classical,Recital. Set of Parts. 28 pages. Published by New City Music (S0.181079).New recital piece for horn and piano.
Journey is a three movement work for horn and piano of approximately 15 minutes in duration. It travels from one scene to the next changing in texture, character and range.
The first movement begins with acoustical elements of interaction between horn and piano as the horn introduction is interrupted by frequent rests so that the reverberations of the piano with damper pedal pressed can be heard. The body of the movement features lyrical horn lines with unexpected harmonies with the piano and then scampers to the end.
In the whimsical second movement the horn plays a happy-go-lucky tune with a smooth melodic line which is highlighted by a minimalist pattern in the piano with modulations that are often out-of-sync between horn and piano and is true to character until the final cadence.
The third movement opens with a register of the piano strings temporarily covered by a bead chain which creates a metallic sonority to compliment the timbre of the stopped horn, thus resulting in a machine like effect. Then a heroic theme alternates with a playful dialog between horn and piano, changing moods and meters until the finale when Journey is completed.
