Abstract: INTERFACE I is a composition for solo French Horn and orchestra. The single movement is divided into two large sections or periods, and each period into smaller sections or phrases. The first period consists of an upbeat (measures 1-96), a downbeat or climax (measures 97-98), and an afterbeat (measures 99-125). The second phrase consists of upbeat (measures 126-158), and downbeat (measures 159 to the end). Each period contains a group of phrases which become increasingly mere complex during the period through the means either of instrumentation, texture, or melodic and contrapuntal movement leading to the downbeat. The first period also includes an afterbeat in which the phrases become gradually less complex and the tempo slows.
