Happy Birthday

Most well-known and generally popular - that's what the Happy Birthday meals served by Claus-Dieter Ludwig are. Meanwhile, they are available in various instrumentations (for piano solo and piano duet, accordion duo, string quartet, piano trio). Now, Andreas Tarkmann has rearranged the work, and it's the wind instrument players' turn to be invited to the buffet – we beg your pardon, to come into their own as gourmets! Flute, oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon enjoy five entertaining variations on the famous birthday song into which other music titles have been sneaked as well: 'Andante festivo e culinario', 'Lento lasagne e lambrusco', 'Marcia marsala e mozzarella', 'Valzero vongole e vaniglia', and the crowning dessert, a fiery 'Tango tartufo e tagliatelle'!
