Philip Myers served with the
Atlantic Symphony, Pittsburgh Symphony and Minnesota Orchestra before becoming
Principal Horn of the New York Philharmonic in 1980. This disc gives a rare
view of modern American horn composition, including the four-horn sonata from
the godfather of modern Mexican music, Carlos Chávez.
