Multi-moded
By Michael Hugh Dixon
Regular price
$25.00
for French Horn with Piano accompaniment
Multi-moded is written for students wanting to warmup with the assistance of a pianist or play along with a MIDI file. The four pieces are also good for students who have some musical skill already but may be undergoing embouchure rehabilitation.
The last piece in the set (IV Chromatic) can be played by those more advanced as an encore piece, freely changing octaves in different repeats. The composer has done this, with the gradually accelerando the music becomes quite exciting.
The audio file can be downloaded or played on the YouTube Channel The Brass
