Who was it that recorded that memorable piece, "Concerto for Horn and
Hardart?"

"Horn Belt Boogie" was one of the four pieces written by Alec Wilder for an
EP
"Conversation Piece for Horns and Harpsichord" (Columbia B-1674) by Mitch
Miller;
the others were "Serenade For Horns"; "Singing Horns"; "Horns O' Plenty".
They were
recorded in New York on August 13th 1951 by:
Stan Freeman, harpsichord; Jimmy Buffington, John Barrows, Ray Alonge and
Gunther Schuller
french horns......maybe a way of relaxing after suffering through a Guy
Mitchell session???
