Agrell, Jeffrey % Rondo - 3OB

Rondofor three oboesby Jeffrey Agrell - American composer and hornist About the Music This Rondo (a rondino, actually) was written for as a ‘treat’ for the oboe section of the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra. As with every piece I write, it is (I believe) fun to play and fun to listen to. It is largely based on the sounds of the intervals of the 2nd and 4th and their inversions. It should be played with great gusto, flair, rhythmic precision, and dynamic contrast and boldness. But the main thing is: have a good time! About the Composer Jeffrey Agrell was horn professor at The University of Iowa School of Music 2000-2021 after a first career as professional symphony musician. He has won awards as both a writer and composer, with dozens of compositions published, recorded, and performed worldwide, plus over one hundred articles and nine books, including Improvisation Games for Classical Musicians (2008) & Vol. II (2016).
