12 Studi per Corno by Luigi Gigantiello

The positivity at Covid-19 that I experienced was perhaps one of the worst moments, but it certainly gave me the opportunity to reflect on many things, as often happens to me the reflection fell on Music, mainly on "my Horn". Being inactive due to the virus gave me an opportunity to try my hand at writing music for the first time, once my quarantine is over.

I composed the 12 Etudes for Horn thinking about how to play the horn a little differently, how to make it seem like there was no logical sense in the writing. In some exercises I have used examples of concert melodies for famous Horn and Orchestral Passes, in others you will find a bit of imagination that never hurts in music.

Composing was a new experience that I had never lived before, for me music is just playing "my Horn". Having the opportunity to express my ideas of music on paper and to be able to spread it was a unique and special feeling, and for this I have to thank those who from an early age gave me the opportunity to enter the world of music and to follow me today in all my Music choices.
