solo oboe
Specific information available for subscribers.
Originally for solo oboe and band; revised version for chamber orchestra and solo oboe by the composer.
Soloist switches among 5 different oboes: bass oboe, oboe d'amore, English horn, oboe, and musette. (Musette sounds a 4th higher than written, i.e., same transposition as trumpet in F).
Alternatives: 1) soloist may play entire work on oboe; 2) soloist may play only English horn and oboe; 3) 2 soloists may be used—one on oboe and the other on English horn.
