Baritone Saxophone; Bassoon; Piano Accompaniment (Bassoon/Piano)
SKU: HL.4009108
(or Baritone Saxophone). Composed by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Concert Band. Classical. Softcover. Duration 960 seconds. Anglo Music Press #AMP 498-401. Published by Anglo Music Press (HL.4009108).UPC: 196288307778.
The bassoon solo, Wind in the Reeds, was commissioned by Deena Draycott in memory of John Watson, an army bandsman, teacher and bassoonist; it is both a tribute and lasting memorial to John. The piece is largely pastoral in nature, evoking images conjured up by the “play on words” in the title, but includes a faster central section which exploits other aspects of the character of the bassoon. Transitions between the various sections of the piece are achieved through a series of accompanied cadenzas for the soloist. Also suitable as a solo for baritone saxophone (solo part included).
