Mystery Excerpt?

In AP Music Theory class, we took a practice exam using the test material from a few years ago. There was an orchestral excerpt used which began with a solo oboe. The piece sounds very awesome, however after searching around, using various sites, I still have not been able to identify the piece the excerpt is from. I've transcribed the first few bars of it below. (It seemed like 6/8 or 3/8 time, not too sure, so I used 6/8. Also, tempo seems to be around 56 = dotted quarter or so.)

If anyone can identify what this is, it would be awesome! I can attempt to locate the recording and transcribe more of it if needed.

Thanks!

EDIT: I've also attached the image here, if the URL above doesn't work.
