Around 1682 the Trompe de Chasse, or hunting horn, came into vogue. The Kings and nobles that played this horn composed thousands of fanfares and several Hubertus-Masses, but no known Requiem. In 2003 Lowell Greer composed the Requiem du Chasseur in memory of Helen Kotas Hirsch, former first horn of the Chicago Symphony. Intorno al 1682 diventò di moda la Trompe de Chasse, o corno da caccia. Re e nobili che suonavano questo strumento composero migliaia di fanfare e diverse Messe di Saint Hubert, ma nessun Requiem di cui si sappia. Nel 2003 Lowell Greer ha composto il Requiem du Chasseur in memoria di Helen Kotas Hirsch, che fu primo corno alla Chicago Symphony.
