This project describes the process of creating an arrangement of Gustav Holst's "Second Suite in F for Military Band," to include the oboe d'amore. The oboe d'amore is a member of the oboe family which is not often used in the modern day. Also included are a score, 5 individual parts, and a digital audio file of the arrangement.

Description
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.
