Annie loves collaborating with composers to create new horn works for beginning students.

She has worked closely with many composers, but one of her favorites is Australian composer Adrian Hallam because he has a fantastic sense of humor and writing style. Works commissioned by Hallam include: The Farm for horn quartet, Fiat Lux for horn quintet, Hollywood for horn quartet and wind ensemble, The Toy Box for woodwind quintet, and Nitro! for 2 horns and piano.

Annie’s collaborations have contributed 20+ works to the repertoire. If you would like to collaborate and build the curriculum for beginners, contact Annie.
