    Abstract

    Igor Stravinsky's classic Octet for wind instruments (flute, clarinet, two bassoons, two trumpets, horn, trombone). The pointillistic and at times jarring Octet is came to the composer in a dream. It is seldom performed and is greatly satisfying for the performers to conquer its technical and rhythmic demands.
