Stout-Duo (Dance Song)-MARIMBA/BASSOON - Product Information
The third work in this genre that I have composed, it is an exciting and virtuosic composition for these two instruments. It requires mature performers. The premiere performance was at The International Double Reed Society Conference, June 1997, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, with Lee Goodhew on bassoon.
