Music for Wind Ensemble​
My main objective in writing for wind ensemble is to go back to its roots in the Frederick Fennel version of what a wind ensemble should be; one to a part with flutes and clarinets doubled, but also a more complete clarinet sound employing the use of Eb clarinet and alto clarinet.
​
Instrumentation is generally as follows, but if your are interested in a piece I can customize it for your group.
Piccolo, Flute 1 and 2, Oboe 1 and 2, Bassoon 1 and 2, Eb Clarinet, Bb Clarinet 1,2,3, Alto Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Alto Saxophone 1 and 2, Tenor Saxophone, Baritone Saxophone, Trumpet 1,2,3 (or Cornet 1,2,3 and Cornet 1 and 2) French Horn 1,2,3,4, Trombone 1,2,3, Euphonium (some divis) Tuba, (some divisi), timpani and percussion
