| Description |
This is an original flute trio, here arranged for 3 Oboes or 2 Oboes and Cor Anglais. The music is entirely derived from the opening motif, which occurred to me on the date of my civil partnership anniversary (11 years).
It's a simple ditty, but I wanted to try to test the strengths of the players. The parts all cover a wide range, and the players need to be able to sustain the rhythmic pulse in 6/8.
Although the tempo is marked <dotted q>=110, it can be played up to 10 BPM faster or slower, depending on the skill of the ensemble.
This would make a great addition to a recital programme or a spring or summer concert. |
