“Cordially yours is a brilliant addition to the repertoire for the intermediate horn player. The pieces have been expertly chosen by John Humphries, and these musically and technically demanding arrangements will stimulate the interest of the player, increasing the options for solo items at that concert in which they may be asked to perform. John provides brief historical and performance notes for each piece, which are not only informative, but also give useful and relevant practical guidance”
