    The re-emergence of the Purcell from the fugue is, I believe, one of the most beautiful moments in all of music. I nearly cry at it every time

    As a bassoonist, I love how he wrote “deepest sounds” and then wrote a quite high solo, and at the end got them to play up to c (octave above middle c) I really want to play thi£

    I wish this was the first orchestral piece I heard. I went to my first one when I was 7 I think, and I was so confused by everything but the music was brilliant. Now after being in band for almost five years and being an absolute music nerd has helped me learn everything and cant wait to graduate in 3 yrs to go to a music college
    Anyways here's an update: I've decided to be a Music Performance Major at the University of Kansas. I'm taking lessons and picking the oboe back up to double along with my clarinet. I want the Fugue to be one of my audition excerpts.

      Clarinet is on top. But I picked up the bassoon instead of the oboe as my concert instrument.

    This has always been my favorite of Britten's compositions...I would listen to it as a child on a CD that also had Prokoviev's Peter and the Wolf on it and while that is absolutely wonderful music I quickly ended up going back again and again to this, especially the Fugue. Just wonderful music.

    Instruments Of The Orchestra - My Opinion
    Flute & Piccolo: The flute is beautiful while the piccolo is nice when it’s not blowing my ears off
    Oboe: The oboe is very nice, beautiful even
    Clarinet: The clarinet is my favorite instrument, I loved its sound ever since I was younger
    Bassoon: The bassoon is my very beautiful instrument, if only it got more solos
    Violin: The violin is my favorite string instrument even though it can hurt my ears at times
    Viola: The viola is a very nice instrument, if only people gave it the chance to show off its abilities
    Cello: The cello a nice instrument with a very nice sound
    String/Double Bass: The double bass actually sounds really nice when it’s not causing an earthquake
    Harp: The harp is absolutely beautiful, an angel’s favorite instrument
    French Horn: The french horn is a nice instrument with a awesome sound
    Trumpet: Just like the violin, the trumpet is nice when it’s not hurting my ears
    Trombone & Tuba: They are both awesome low instruments
    Percussion: They’re okay when they don’t make a lot of noise

      What contrabassoons??? Britten forgot about them.
      "There was a young fellow named Otto
      Who could f*rt like a Contrafaggotto
      But the orchestra pit
      Started smelling like sh*t
      And he never achieved a vibrato."
