A is for Oboe
*SIGNED BOOKPLATES from LERA AUERBACH and MARILYN NELSON*
This deeply imaginative and entertaining poetry collection details the pleasures of the orchestra, from strong-willed A to satisfied Z.
Two widely acclaimed poetsâone a composer and classical pianist as wellâhave come together to create this extraordinary portrait of the orchestra in all of its richness and fascination, using the structure of the alphabet in a way thatâs entirely new and delightful. A is for the first note you hear as you take your seat in the concert hall, played by the headstrong oboe. B is for the bassoon, âthe orchestraâs jester, complaining impatiently through his nose.â And C is for the conductor, âlike the captain on the bridge of a great ship, navigating the composerâs musical charts.â
Onward the text goes, soaring in reverie and making thought-provoking observations while not taking itself too seriouslyâilluminating all the various details that flow together to create the nourishing experience of playing or listening to music.
