Jenni Brandon: Going to the Sun Snapshots from Glacier National Park

Oboe and Bassoon Duet - Individual parts plus score included. This piece explores the beauty of Glacier National Park in Montana. It was commissioned by Jennifer Gookin Cavanaugh with the support of a grant from the Provost's Office at the University of Montana and Elizabeth Ball Crawford with the support of the Great Falls Symphony Orchestra. It was premiered at the IDRS Society conference in Columbus, Georgia in 2016. The work is in one movement broken into several sections. The oboe and bassoon are great story telling instruments lending their voices and character to each of these sections painting the landscape with texture, range and song. While the vastness and beauty is too big to capture in any work of music, it is the composer's hope that the listener can travel this road with us through this natural wonder and remember the importance of supporting our National Parks.
