I composed the Introduction and Theme with Variations in 2022 for the remarkable English horn player, Andrew van der Paardt. In composing this piece, I wanted to go against the stereotype of music that is given to the English horn, which is dark and gloomy. The Introduction is slow, but gentle and sweet rather than doleful, and the Theme with Variations shows off the virtuosic skills of the soloist. There is no darkness here, only cheerful light with flashes of brilliance.This version of the music is an arrangement for piano and English horn of the original string orchestra version. It may be used as a recital piece, or in rehearsal for an orchestral performance.
