Magic Garden - The Venetian Collection

Inspired by a painting by German artist Paul Klee  1879 - 1940 , this work forms the third movement of "The Venetian Collection". Completely different than the other parts of the cycle, this movement illustrates Klee's colorful, naive dream world by means of a fragile, transparent texture, bringing the woodwinds into the limelight. The rather abrupt conclusion is preceded by a breathtakingly fast unison passage for the complete woodwind group. (Duration 8:00)
