Downton Abbey was a very successful TV series on PBS that ran for 6 seasons from 2010 to 2015. The music for the series was written by John Lunn, and was also quite popular. John Lunn's musical style has its roots in pop and minimalism, which is evident in this piece.

Love and the Hunter has a lighter feel than the main title, and includes syncopated passages throughout its entirety. If you are familiar with the TV series, than this will be quite familiar, as the melody is played in many episodes. What this piece has that the main title piece doesn't is a lot of tempo changes, which makes the repeated melody sound new and different with each change.

This arrangement is scored for 2 oboes, 2 English horns, and 2 bassoons. This is simple enough for musicians with intermediate skills.
