Yup!

Alfred Reed is one of the most popular composers here in Singapore.
El Camino Real has been played again and again both in and outdoors for
years now.

I'd like to add a few pieces..

Spolights on the Bass Clarinet - Jan Hadermann
Beautiful slightly jazzy piece. It exploits the whole range of the bclt
wonderfully!

Lord Of the Rings - Johan de Meij

Purple Twilight - don't remember..think it was James Barnes..
Its a piece in rememberence of the explosion of the space shuttle Callenger.

The bclt part isn't really special or anything but I like it a lot.

Other Classical transcriptions include Light Calvary and New World
Symphony

Well thats all for now :-)
Yours sincerely,
Loh
