About This Song
About "The Five Sacred Trees (Concerto for Bassoon and Orchestra): III. Eó Rossa" by London Symphony Orchestra
The third movement glimmers with icy, arpeggiated textures. 'Eó Rossa' lets the bassoon sing a lonely, keening line above a frostbitten orchestra, as if a sacred tree stands exposed on a winter hill. Beauty and isolation entwine in Williams' most delicate concerto writing.
