The Brass Whisperer - TUNING THE HORN

Buy track

Microtonal horns using pitches from harmonics 32-63 played in the standard horn range. Edgy harmonies and layers of polytonal arpeggios over a low F drone. 25 horn lines. The name refers to a street in Sydney yet extends to the issue of rising sea levels.
An extended version of the music present live at Sydney MicroFest 5 in June 2023.

Playful piece for solo horn with horn quartet. A bunch of 7-limit harmonies with a few 11th harmonics for extra spice.

arapacana is my latest duo for 2 horns in just intonation. Annalisa Solinas and I made a video of it for presentation at the International Horn Society Symposium IHS53 which occurred in August 2021. They have exclusive access of that video through till November this year. In the meantime we released it as an audio version for the streaming services.

I made a playlist of my compositions which have just intonation horn parts in Tidal, Deezer:
