John
Tavener 's Kaleidoscopes
is a tribute to Mozart
for Solo Oboe, Percussion
and four String Quartets,
lasting approximately 30
minutes. The work was
commissioned by the
Britten Sinfonia, and
first performed by them
with soloist Nicholas
Daniel on 6th November
2006 at the Queen
Elizabeth Hall, London.
This is the Solo Oboe
part. In the composer's
note, Tavener
explains his high
regard for Mozart, and
how in Kaleidoscopes
he attempts to take
Mozart's music and
meditate upon it in four
main cycles. He states
that all the music has
its source in Mozart,
whether it be rhythmic,
harmonic or
contrapuntal. .
