Adolphus Hailstork: Siciliana for Solo English Horn
This piece is actually structured as a recitative and aria: a dramatic prelude serves as a soliloquy with question-like pauses, teasing our ears forward. The opening unfolds into a gorgeous rendering of the traditional 12/8 dance form, full of soaring meodies and elegant arabesques. The technical demands are within the reach of students looking for unaccompanied contest repertoire, while the expressive potential is enticing for advanced players in any setting. Performance time = 6 minutes.
