Badgeritone - a piece for solo baritone horn in the shape of a European badger.
This piece was commissioned by a lovely person as a birthday gift to his wife. They live in the countryside of England where Badgers roam freely and visit them in their garden often. They have a special relationship with the badgers. They protect and respect them as well as other wild species that live in the area.
For me, it was great fun to create this piece in honor of this magnificent wild animal while trying to describe its characteristics using the baritone horn, which is the main instrument of the commissioner of this piece.
