Dedicated to Bryan Young, Principal Bassoon, Baltimore Chamber OrchestraBassoon Duration: 5'3 Composed: 2020 Published by: Subito Music Publishing PROGRAM NOTE: The year 2020 has definitely been a very challenging year with many upheavals. During this time of the COVID-19 health crisis, wearing masks, and high racial tensions, I decided to compose four short solo woodwind works for flute, oboe, clarinet, and bassoon, which represent the core woodwind section in an orchestra. I was inspired to compose these short pieces after I first heard Igor Stravinsky's three short pieces for clarinet, which totals a little more than four minutes in duration. I thought that it would be nice to highlight and honor my African-American male colleagues in the orchestral music world. I wanted to celebrate the fact that they are the principal player in the section of their respective orchestras. The short pieces are as follows: Principal Brother No. 1 for flute solo for Demarre McGill, Principal Flute of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra, Principal Brother No. 2 for oboe solo for Titus Underwood, Principal Oboe of the Nashville Symphony Orchestra, Principal Brother No. 3 for clarinet solo for Anthony McGill, Principal Clarinet of the New York Philharmonic, and Principal Brother No. 4 for bassoon solo for Bryan Young, Principal Bassoon of the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra. These works all begin with notes that are representative of their name; D for Demarre, B for Titus (ti in solfège starting on C), A for Anthony, and Bb for Bryan. There is also a rhythmic figure in the opening measures of each piece, which represent the utterance of their names. All four of these works are rhapsodic in nature with elements of improvisation. - James Lee III.

Das Quartett do-re-mi-fagott schrieb die Komponistin Barbara Heller im Jahr 2009 fur das gleichnamige Fagott-Quartett des Frankfurter Jugend-Musik-Ensembles. Heller entwickelte ein einpragsames Motiv aus den vier Tonen c-d-e-f bzw. do-re-mi-fa, das zur Namensgebung der Komposition fuhrte. Mit einfachem musikalischen Material entlockt sie dem Fagott eine bemerkenswerte klangliche Vielfalt und entdeckt die Wandlungsfahigkeit dieses Instruments. Alle vier Stimmen sind gleichberechtigt: Motive und Melodiefloskeln werden einander zugespielt und weitergefuhrt. Heller regt zu einer freien Interpretation an und gibt den Spielern Raum zur eigenen Improvisation uber das Motiv. do-re-mi-fagott richtet sich an fortgeschrittene Musikschuler und ambitionierte Hobbymusiker, die Freude am Zusammenspiel haben und die klanglichen Facetten des Instruments ausschopfen wollen.
