Icare

Which instrument renders a better representation of the unfortunate attempt of the young Icarus to fly beneath the sun?
The composer Pascal Proust has many years’ experience as a musician and music teacher. His output includes several hundred compositions for the most diverse instrumentations. He wrote Icare for oboe players at the level of approximately 3–4 years’ study and paid special attention to an easy-to-follow, attractive musical style. As a result, Icare is an ideal performance or competition work for young musicians.
