Wind in the Reeds for Bassoon and Piano (or Baritone Saxophone) by Philip Sparke Concert Band - Sheet Music

By Philip Sparke

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).
