French composer, Henri Büsser entered the Paris Conservatoire in 1889. He won the 1893 Prix de Rome and led a highly successful career as a composer, conductor, teacher and organist. His compositions for a variety of instruments are exceptional, Hunting Saint Hubert for French Horn and Piano being no exception. As reflected in Hunting Saint Hubert, Büsser's compositional style was sophisticated, yet true to the 19th Century French tradition. Elements of Hunting Saint Hubert include, chromaticism, exploitation of tonality, complex rhythms and significant tempo changes, among other aspects. For all advanced French horn players, Büsser's Hunting Saint Hubert is essential to a varied repertoire.

Forsyth's Modern Wind Music is a series of volumes containing exciting and challenging, but not unduly difficult, works by talented English composers of current or recent vintage for recital, study or recreation. Each volume includes three works with piano, one unaccompanied piece, and one piece for two or more players of the instrument. In this volume for horn two aubades by David Ellis and John Golland (Ascent) reflect traditional associations of the instrument, whilst Anthony Gilbert's Two Birds by Kuring-Gai show the horn in an unusual guise and where written whilst the composer was living in the spectacular landscape of New South Wales. James Langley's music is well known to horn players and his fanfare-like Caccia for solo horn and Trident for three horns are both welcome additions to a slender repertory.
