Original

Echo of the Spheres composed by Daniel Baldwin. For 16 part bassoon ensemble. 14 bassoons & 2 contrabassoons. Level 2-5. Duration 4 minutes 40 seconds. Published by Imagine Music. IG.CMS1121. Composer's Notes. Over the years I have had the opportunity to annually attend the International Double Reed Society convention where I have had many of my compositions performed. These performances gave me the idea of putting on a large bassoon ensemble recital at an IDRS convention and writing a piece for this performance. I was pleased to have my proposal accepted and to present such a performance at the 40th IDRS convention at Arizona State University. Echo of the Spheres is based on a poem by Lord Byron. My goal was to compose something completely new. a piece specifically designed to be a festival piece for bassoon day events. These bassoon days are an annual occurence at colleges and universities across the United States. The composition is divided into four choirs of quartets. Choir1, 2, and 4 are for college and high school age players. Quartet 3 is designed to be played by beginning and middle school age players. The piece is in overture form and designed to be similar to a high school band piece, which should be familiar to younger performers and easy to put together. There are appropriate challenges throughout the piece, but it maintains a high degree of accessibility. It is my hope that Echo of the Spheres will become a regular annual closing number for bassoon festivals. I had the honor to conduct the premiere of Echo of the Spheres on June 2nd, 2011 at the 40th Annual IDRS Convention at Arizona State University.

Ekko av Spheres komponert av Daniel Baldwin. For 16 part bassoon ensemble. 14 bassoons & 2 contrabassoons. Nivå 2-5. Varighet 4 minutter 40 sekunder. Publisert av Imagine Music. IG.CMS1121. Komponistens notater. Over the years I have had the opportunity to annually attend the International Double Reed Society convention where I have had many of my compositions performed. Disse forestillingene ga meg ideen om å sette på en stor fagott ensemble konsert i en IDRS konvensjonen og skrive et stykke for denne forestillingen. Jeg var glad for å ha min forslaget akseptert og å presentere en slik ytelse på den 40. IDRS konvensjonen ved Arizona State University. Echo of the Spheres er basert på et dikt av Lord Byron. Mitt mål var å komponere noe helt nytt. et stykke spesielt designet for å være en festival stykke for fagott dagers hendelser. These bassoon days are an annual occurence at colleges and universities across the United States. Sammensetningen er delt inn i fire kor av kvart. Choir1, 2, og 4 er for college og high school age spillere. Quartet 3 er designet for å bli spilt av begynnelsen og midten skolealder spillere. Stykket er i ture formen og designet for å ligne på en high school band stykke, noe som bør være kjent for yngre utøvere og lett å sette sammen. Det finnes hensiktsmessige utfordringer gjennom hele stykket, men det opprettholder en høy grad av tilgjengelighet. Det er mitt håp at Echo of the Spheres vil bli et fast årlig avslutningsnummeret for fagott festivaler. Jeg hadde æren av å gjennomføre premieren av Echo of the Spheres den 2. juni 2011 kl den 40. Annual IDRS konvensjonen ved Arizona State University.
