Daniel Grabois, Blue Ridge Courtship, for horn and violoncello
”Blue Ridge Courtship was written in 2006 to celebrate the wedding of my Uncle Tony and his new wife Kim. I played the piece with my brother (a professional cellist) at the wedding. The opening section should be played with long, lyrical lines. The con moto section can move just a little, and the style becomes punchier. The Exuberant section should express all the joy of a wedding in progress. In the mixed meter sections, the value of the sixteenth note remains constant.” - Daniel Grabois
