The pieces on the program include a concerto by Franz Joseph Haydn, a sonatina by Franz Schubert originally for violin and piano but transcribed for horn, a contemporary sonata for natural horn by American James Nicholas, and a brand new sonata for horn and piano by Washington composer, jazz pianist, and performer at Jazz in the Valley 2008, Brent Edstrom. The styles will range from Classical to jazzy; the program will have something for everyone. The concert is free and open to the public.
