CMP 1686
Solo for unaccompanied oboe.
Grade 5+. Approx. duration: a little more than six minutes.
Set includes a performance score.
In 1985 an Oboe Concerto was completed and performed at St John’s Smith Square, London with the soloist Nicholas Daniel conducted by the composer. This work was suggested by the emergence of Stormy Daniels, her name suggesting a turbulent wind piece for the oboist with a similar name expressed in an atonal idiom redolent of Varèse which resurfaces in later orchestral works by Álvarez such as ‘The brassic Fish Lass.’
This work is built on three themes: theme one is characterized by widely spaced accented figures and quintuple or sextuplet semiquaver flourishes elaborating an arabesque. Theme two is largely built on a hieratic triplet-crotchet motion with grace-notes accenting the snake-like writhing of the melody, a repeated single-note figure characterized by transitions to breathy notes at the end of each note, and an ascending multi-note acciaccatura. Theme three is linked to theme two with the latter ornament appearing with great frequency here and the introduction of a scooping motiv of two short notes linked to rapidly rising or falling to a longer concluding note and a single short note repeated once as a longer one. The development section begins at m. 61 with a statement of the quintuplets of the first theme, the listener alerted to this by a long, fairly high held note with a crescendo, later confirmed by an even longer held note on an even higher note. There is a brief recapitulation at m. 123, characterized initially by a return to the low notes of the opening.
