May 7, 200817 yr I'm looking for new music to play at my oboe/english horn recital at interlochen this coming fall. If anyone's interested in writing a piece for me, that would be awesome. I'm going to have a piece of mine on the recital too, and I don't want it to be a lone random new thing when I'm playing the masterworks :) The piece would be credited to the composer (duh! :toothygrin:) and a recording will be made and posted. I'm looking for anything written for oboe or english horn, either with or without piano. Thanks guys.
May 7, 200817 yr I've actually got the perfect piece for you. I'll find it and pass it along. It's difficult, but hopefully you'd enjoy it...remind me via PM or something if I don't give it to you within the next day or two. :)
May 8, 200817 yr I'm definitely interested... might I ask what you're playing for the remainder of the recital? (if you have any chosen at the moment, of course)
May 8, 200817 yr Author Well. I have a lot of repertoire to choose from but I'm not sure exactly except for the starred ones. (pardon my notes :p) EDIT: I'm for sure doing: Poulenc - Sonata Bozza - Lied for English Horn Paladilhe - Concertante (it's rare, here's the only recording I could find on the entire internet)
May 8, 200817 yr Don't play the Cimarosa! It's so boring... How long would you want to have to practise the piece? (i.e., a deadline of sorts)
May 8, 200817 yr Thanks for giving me a nice little poke in the inspiration. (hrm, mixed metaphor) Do you mind if the piece is humorous?
May 9, 200817 yr Author Well, it's going to be in the fall, probably in october or maybe november if I can't get a date. I'll most likely have 3 weeks of practice with piano and all summer without it. I don't care if it's humourous either :)
May 11, 200817 yr Hmm so if it is oboe & piano, the pianist has 3 weeks to learn it? Also, I assume you don't mind getting more than one thing sent to you from YCians? [/question bombardment]
May 11, 200817 yr I would like to write som music for you, if you like classical/baroque influenced music.

[/question bombardment] The pianist will have about 3 weeks to learn it, yes, but the accompanists are professional players, so whoever does it will do a great job. Actually, the more the better to choose from :)
August 6, 200817 yr Author K I have some of the multiphonics I promised on my esnips: OH. BOE. eSnips Folder I'm writing out a fingering chart with the written tones, and that should be done later today.
