About

This work was originally for soprano saxophone and orchestra written in 1996, and was re-arranged for oboe and piano in 2002.

The first movement was inspired by cartoon characters and has a quirky quality. The middle slow movement is soulful and lyrical. The third movement begins sternly before morphing into a wistful waltz, which in turn changes into a fast, lively tempo.
