Belying the almost universal notion among musicians that nearly no works have been composed for the solo English horn, McMullen has compiled a list of over 200 in just four years, and all of them truly composed for the English horn, not for the oboe and transposed. Here he catalogues those either in print or available from the composer as of January 1985. He discusses 14 well-known works, lists all works by composer and theme, provides information about the piece and the composer, and includes the score of the principal motive.
