During my career as an oboist, I have only played the oboe d’amore one time before this project. I have always wondered why such a beautiful instrument is scarcely played today, and decided it was time to commission new works that aim to bring back the instrument’s popularity. Tim Carlos composed Fernweh: Sonata for Oboe d’amore and Piano and Two Sketches for Oboe d’amore, Guitar, and Percussion. This document covers the collaborative method Carlos and I experienced, the history of the oboe d’amore, edits made to the compositions, and most importantly a performer’s guide to these two new works (discussing both technical and musical challenges.) The recordings are also included. To purchase either work in its entirety, contact timcarloscomposer@gmail.com.
