Solo for Horn in F | Joseph Hollings
Level 5 (Advanced) | Duration: ~6 minutes
A powerful, expressive work for unaccompanied horn in F, Standing on the Bank of the River Pant offers advanced high school, collegiate, and professional horn players a chance to showcase their full musical range.
From its lyrical opening to its rhythmically intense, dissonant middle section, this solo captures the emotional complexity of memory and reflection—perfect for recital, contest, or jury settings. Inspired by the River Pant in the composer’s hometown of Great Sampford (Essex, UK), the piece uses contrast and color to evoke a landscape both tranquil and turbulent.
Ideal for:
- Solo Ensemble contests
- Recital and jury repertoire
- College-level horn studio literature
- Horn teachers seeking fresh, modern material
Highlights:
- Solo horn in F (unaccompanied)
- Contemporary, expressive style
- Emphasis on phrasing, dynamic shaping, and rhythmic precision
Premiered by Greg Hillis at Cleveland State University as part of the Cleveland Composers Guild concert series.
