This solo for flugel horn is an arrangement of the song Fields of Gold by Sting. The song was also covered by American singer and guitarist Eva Cassidy who recorded a version that first appeared on her 1996 live album Live at Blues Alley, then later on her albums Songbird (1998). In Lyrics By Sting, the singer described the view from his 16th-century Wiltshire manor house: In England, our house is surrounded by barley fields, and in the summer it's fascinating to watch the wind moving over the shimmering surface, like waves on an ocean of gold. There's something inherently sexy about the sight, something primal, as if the wind were making love to the barley. Lovers have made promises here, I'm sure, their bonds strengthened by the comforting cycle of the seasons..
