Product Overview

For Horn & Flute.

For Horn & Flute.
By Mike Keegan

As a wonderful instrumental combination, flute and horn complement each other in many ways.  Known for its fine delicacy, the flute has a wonderfully soft sound that everyone can enjoy.  The Horn adds a background texture with its characteristically mellow tone which supports the tone of the flute.  Theme and Variations on an Irish Melody serves as a fine example of how two different instruments support each other in ways no one can imagine.

Theme and Variations on an Irish Melody for flute and horn opens in A major.  The principal melodic material is stated by the flute and then is followed in the horn.  This material continues throughout the first and second variations.  The third variation, in A minor, has solo lines for both instruments.  The fourth variation returns to A major at a faster tempo.  The theme returns in the Finale to a soft ending.
