The story has been told many ways, and these two pieces take inspiration from conflicting versions of the story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Isolde&#8217;s Garden<\/strong> is a gentle reminiscence of times past. Imagine Isolde at peace, somewhat melancholy but reconciled to love lost, on a warm summer day in Cornwall. A richly harmonized melody emerges gradually. There is a hummable tune, but not a song. The music sings of poignant memories, perhaps not reconciled after all. It is inspired by recent novels of Guenevere and Isolde. These novels contrasted with Wagner&#8217;s version, where Isolde dies an early and passionate death over Tristan&#8217;s body. Duration is approximately 2&#8242; 30&#8243;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cornwall Hunt<\/strong> is a lively fantasy. There are extensive quotations from the wonderful hunting music for horns in Wagner&#8217;s Tristan and Isolde, Act II. It is challenging and fun to play. A modal medieval character alternates with the hunting calls. Duration is approximately 4 minutes.<\/p>\n<h2>Listen<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Listen <\/strong>to a performance by massed horn choir conducted by Paul Mansur. The concert was in the wonderfully resonant Eastman Theatre at the 1997 International Horn Society Workshop in Rochester, NY.<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-622-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-isoldecornwall-ihschoir.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-isoldecornwall-ihschoir.mp3\">http:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-isoldecornwall-ihschoir.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download a Preview PDF of the Score Isolde&#8217;s Garden &amp; Cornwall Hunt for horn quartet &#8211; Preview (373 kB) Printing is disabled for Preview scores.
