The SUITE for Alphorn and Organ by Alexander Daerr opens up a fascinating sound world for a rare instrumentation: Alphorn in F and organ. Until now, there has only been a very limited repertoire for this extraordinary combination – with this suite, the spectrum is expanded by a work that is equally humorous, sparkling, and contemplative.

Content & Character of the Composition
The suite consists of four varied movements that present the alphorn in its full expressive range and place it in a warm dialogue with the organ:

1. FANFARE MONTAGNA – a powerful, festive opening with alpine character
2. RIPOSO – calm, meditative soundscapes full of contemplation
3. SOGNO PRATO – lyrical atmosphere on a dreamlike musical meadow
4. CAPRICCIO JAZZISTICO – lively, rhythmic, with playful jazzy elements

Special Features

• 44 pages organ score
• Alphorn in F as solo instrument – a rarity in the sheet music repertoire
