Composed during the summer of 1964 at the Aspen Music Festival, performed by students under the direction of Leonard Slatkin. The composer writes: “The first movement has much the feel of a Mozart string divertimento. The 'distant relative' of the second movement was Richard Wagner, and there are hidden quotations of his work throughout. The short scherzo movement, which leads to a solo lament, eventually lands upon a light-hearted rondo, unashamedly in G major, a compositional ploy that drew criticism in its time.”.

This piece has a broad, moderately paced first movement which leads to a sparkling scherzo, which in turn gives way to an extremely sparsely textured movement that features the horn and its less frequently used techniques. The whole piece turns on this movement, then a couple of crisp arpeggios act as a premature, cinematic transition into the big finale, the longest and the technically most demanding movement of the piece.
