Here is a concise and playable version of the well-known classic by Rimsky-Korsakov. Using themes from The Sea and Sinbad's Ship, Jay Bocook skillfully adapts this work for young players while still maintaining crucial elements from the original orchestration. After the powerful unison opening, the solo cadenza can be performed either by alto sax or clarinet. The remaining allegro section is written in 3/4 and provides featured lines for woodwinds before winding down to the quiet ending. (3:50)
