The Sonata for Horn and Piano is one of Paul Hindemith's most substantial instrumental sonatas, lasting as it does over a quarter of an hour in performance. It was composed in late 1939 and features the composer's trademark interaction between the two instruments. The first movement has a broad heroic quality to it, while the second movement is slow and expansive. The finale is typically urgent and virtuosic for both instruments to perform.
