Halloween has some of the best music of all the holidays! And ever since I began writing brass duets for the Holiday Horns, my partner Jill Graybill and I have speculated about what a Holiday Horns Halloween book would sound like.  

Well, this year we found out! I recently arranged a set of 13, short, Halloween brass duets- playable by most combinations of any 2 brass instruments.  We recorded them a few weeks ago at Parallel Productions near Lancaster, PA, and today they are available to hear on all streaming platforms.

The idea with recording the duets is really just to have demos of what the arrangements sound like. I’m planning to publish the sheet music to these and all the other Holiday Horns material soon- they’re fun to play and can be used for teaching, professional play, or just for fun.

The thirteen songs in the Halloween book have been combined into a 3 track EP.  Hopefully the tunes will all sound familiar to you. Here they are- click the titles or photos to listen!

1-Halloween Party

Includes The Addams Family, The Munsters, Grim Grinning Ghosts, Alfred Hitchcock Theme

2-Spooky Tunes

Includes, This Is Halloween, The Phantom of the Opera, Hedwig’s Theme, Date Vader’s Theme

3- Creepy Classical Classics

Includes In The Hall Of The Mountain King, Danse Macabre, Night On Bald Mountain, Toccata & Fugue in D Minor, Dies Irae

For the full backstory on the Holiday Horns and for more information on the other brass duo’s I’ve arranged, read this article.
