Interpretations of the dancemovements, realisation of the musical imagery, approaches toarticulation, sonority, and the characterisation of the music itself canall be taken into account.”

The competition produced an astonishing range of interpretationsfrom recordings mainly made in December 2020 and January 2021under lockdown conditions. Twelve of these form the basis of the CD,along with single movements played by Rebecca Koopmans (contrabassoon), Thomas Friedle (cor anglais), Matteo Costanzi (oboe),Hannah Parry (recorder), Will Hammond (clarinet), Gabriel Grãmesc(oboe da caccia), Kelley Osterberg (oboe) and Mark Baigent (oboe).
