Original

Shankin' on a Rutabaga composed by Mark Adam Watkins. For wind quintet. flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, bassoon. Chamber Music. Grade 3. Duration 3. 00. Published by Alry Publications. AY.CM-83. Well, the title about says it all. This piece is quirky, jazzy, a lot of fun to play, and makes a great addition to the standard quintet repertoire. It is a hard piece to explain, so here are some words from the composer. "Uniquely, this piece always makes me think I'm some British composer who was writing about rabbits vying for vegetables, frolicking in a forbidden garden. maybe I was channeling "The Tortoise & the Hare" and the turtle finally gets a voice at "E". The rabbit gets a tummy ache mistaking a rutabaga for a carrot, & has to play catch up.
