George Gershwin combines elements of classical and jazz in his 1924 work, Rhapsody in Blue. This arrangement for 7 horns and tuba (or 8 horns) uses straight mutes, stop mutes, and a harmon mutes to create colorful textures. It is important that hornists play out when using mutes to balance with unmuted horns. Some other notes about this arrangement:
-Horn 1 calls for a harmon mute. A bass trombone harmon mute is reccomended but a stop mute can be used in its place.
-An optional 8th horn part is provided. It should be played if no tuba is present.
-Duration 9:00
