Garden delight
2015-11-05


Jonathan Dove's work 'Figures in the garden' from 1991 is a serenade for wind octet. The Nederlands Saxofoon Octet has it on its repertoire and this is how I got the chance to listen to it live.

Inspired by Mozart's opera, 'The Marriage of Figaro' the piece was meant to be performed as the audience were eating their picnics. More to discover at bbc.co.uk
