Jack A wrote You might check with Mon Chou, the Great Horn Cabbage. He might have some quite interesting pieces for high voice(s) and horn.
******** Three pieces of mine might be useful. One is Higgins is Gone, for high voice, violin, horn, and piano. Published by Thompson Edition (hint: use a slower tempo than the one marked on the score.) The second is the aria See Spot Run for coloratura soprano, garden hose (in D) and piano. This piece is from my opera Fun with Dick and Jane. The soprano goes up to high E. If you have a toy piano, you might as well perform the entire opera. The third is the dirge The Swallow Leaves her Nest for high voice, solo horn, and handbell. One of the songs I wrote for a play by Beddoes, Death's Jest-Book. The horn plays off-stage. it is recommended (though not required) that the hand bell player dress as the Grim Reaper, In my forthcoming opera Elvis in Cleveland, the soprano aria You Can't Get There from Here has an impressive horn solo. Unfortunately, I haven't written it yet. I have been looking for a wealthy patron of the arts who will offer me a sizable commission to keep this opera unwritten.
