Five Poems - Woodwind Quintet

High on the list of recent contributions to classical music are the works of Czech-American composer Karel Husa. This wonderful piece for woodwind quintet captures his unique vision and imagination. Written as an ode to his appreciation for birds, these "5 Poems" contain no words, yet are written in a manner to allow the listener free interpretation of content based upon the individual title of each piece. From the staccato phrasing of "Fighting Birds" to the airy legato of "Bird Flying High Above", you'll understand why this respected composer is considered a modern master! "Five Poems - Woodwind Quintet - Small Ensemble" weighs 9.92 oz.

Another Product You Might Enjoy

Richard Wilson has composed over 70 pieces that are widely studied and enjoyed throughout the world. "Profound Utterances" is a valued piece among bassoon players. It could even be said that no bassoon sheet music collection can be complete without it. Order your copy today and see why so many people can't be wrong.
 
Editor's note: While this is a fine piece for solo performance, it should be noted that all sounds made by a bassoon, which is undoubtedly the finest instrument ever invented, are "profound". While Mr. Wilson is a superb composer, we respectfully submit that the title "Profound Utterances" is redundant when referring to the music produced by a bassoon player. (In case you haven't figured it out yet, the person editing this description is a bassoonist...) "Richard Wilson - Profound Utterances For Solo Bassoon - Bassoon (Instrumental Folio)" weighs 2.56 oz.
