Prism
by Perttu Haapanen
for solo horn
Description
The collaboration with a performing artist is always a priviledge for a composer. 'Prism' was composed as a result of 'horn laboratories' with Tommi Hyytinen. The material in this piece are one melodic, one dynamic and one rhythmic basic gesture. The piece is dedicated to Tommi Hyytinen.

Mahdollisuus yhteistyöhön esittävän taiteilijan kanssa on aian säveltäjällle etuoikeus. Tässäkin tapauksessa "Prism" on syntynyt "käyrätorvilaboratorioiden" tuloksena Tommi Hyytisen kanssa. Kappaleen rakennusmateriaaleina ovat yksi melodinen, yksi dynaaminen ja yksi rytminen perushahmo. "Prism" on omistettu Tommi Hyytiselle.
