Beautiful musical arrangement– what a gorgeous piece– and I love that it introduces a wide array of people to this type of music. PS- I could never make the clarinet sound like that when I played. Holy cow. I wonder if that is why my band director switched me to oboe.

Thank you so much for that article, FW. I loved knowing more about that piece and what all it evokes. It’s just beautiful.
