I love this piece! I heard it at a festival and fell in love. I was wondering, does anyone have the first oboe part, and if so could you send me a copy? My high school refuses to order it. Thanks!

the solo is: Bb-Bb-C-Eb-Db-C

that's a Eb grace note to Db. kind of difficult lol.

That is indeed a beautiful piece. I played it during a summer band at SMSU (now MSU - Missouri State University) 2 summers ago under the director Steve Eubanks. However, since I did not have a school oboe to take home with me, I had to play flute that summer (plus I was going with my aunt since it's in a big town and all and she plays flute.)
