    Program Notes:

    Work in progress - for now see the fist volume of these: opus

    I didn't compose for several months in the Fall of 2022, but I had started some of these 16 pieces. I find that I really need to keep on writing a piece until it's done, so my thoughts are consistent and organized.

    No. 5 I use the harmonic row as the basis for the cord progression:Burdick's Op. 321 No. 5 chord progression

    With No. 7 (23-39) I began this work three times in different ways until I found that the relationship of the harmonic row to scale, created something I liked, Then I had the 2 minute long work done in less than two hours.

    In No. 7, I started using multiple natural horn keys, live Wagner did in his Sigfried Idyll, where the horn was played like a hand-horn, but there was no time to remove the crooks and change keys, the crook changes were done with the valves.

    Also in No. 7 I started tones that were not in the scale,but only as trills, signifying less stable tones and emphasizing my love for trills!

    After I finished NO. 7 I completed the last one in this set No. 16 (32) This is writtenfor horn, in F, G & A; it's very hard on natual horn and a good high "blow" on valve horn, and it's beautiful. Durring the recoding process on Dec. 29, 2022 I decided to make a key element fo the rest of the duet the major triads of the scale, so thi si what I am doing as I proceed

    No. 9 (25) I use the scale tone chord row form as pictured here:
    Op. 325 No. 9 chord order

    No. 10 (26) In version one of No. 26 I wrote the piano part in a regular pattern. For version 2 it was fliped around putting part one at the end plus a few other small changes.Burdick's form chart for op. 321-26
