Works with Horn by Female Composers Catalog

Founded in 2002, this catalog has been an essential resource for performers, composers, teachers, scholars, and others who are interested in programming or studying works with horn by female composers. The catalog includes solo and chamber music with horn (original works, up to 12 instruments) by female composers from around the world. Almost 2,000 pieces are listed and the catalog is continuing to be updated. I welcome your additions, corrections, and questions. Please contact me using this link.

About half of this list was originally collected from these
sources. I am especially indebted to Monique Buzzarté and Heidi Boenke for their compilations. More recently, I want to thank Rob Deemer, Ashley Killam, and everyone else who is working on the Composer Diversity Database. Finally, Michael Allen from Boulder Brass offered significant contributions to the brass quintet page in 2020.

***NEW: the pandemic has given me some extended time to figure out how to add links to this catalog. For those pieces with titles or publishers that are
underlined, they are linked to publisher pages and recordings.
