I’ve a friend who thinks he may not like Shostakovich. Please send suggestions for works you believe will turn him from this error!
(Note that where he works, they sometimes play the Eighth Quartet in the background. Under the circs., that may not be an apt suggestion.)
List of instruments given as ad libitum in the score of Benjamin Britten’s Sinfonia da requiem, Opus 20:
- Alto flute
- Alto saxophone
- Harp II
- Horns V & VI
