Landscapes competition submission - Morning On Whidbey Island

This is my submission for the Landscapes competition.

For my landscape I have chosen this photo I took a few years ago while on vacation on Whidbey Island, which sits on the Puget Sound near Seattle. It's written for Oboe, Bassoon, and Harp. I wanted to capture the quiet, stillness of the moment with music that is very simple and delicate.

Very Good Well Done

You've Set a Standard that's Hard to compete with....

By using only 3 Instruments, you've been able to create an inspiring, "MOOD".

This piece of music did it’s a really good job, capturing the quietness and beauty of the given landscape. It’s not really my cup of tea, but it’s relaxing and it gives the atmospheric feeling that you’re actually there.
