Score and Parts Bassoon; Concert Band (Score & Parts) - Grade 3 SKU: HL.44013084
For Bassoon (or Baritone Saxophone) and Concert Band. Composed by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Concert Band. Classical. Softcover. Duration 410 seconds. Anglo Music Press #AMP450-010. Published by Anglo Music Press (HL.44013084). Wind in the Reeds was commissioned by Deena Draycott in memory of John Watson, an army bandsman, teacher and bassoonist. Wind in theReeds 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.
