…for solo bassoon & woodwind ensemble.
A Wild Heart is a narrative piece set to the backdrop of the popular Nintendo game series: the Legend of Zelda. Each movement is steeped in the soundscape of three different games in the series. Beginning in media res, “Breath” opens with the bassoon crying out into a flurry of despair—the painful memories still fresh in the mind. “Twilight” reminisces about a time of hopeful naïveté, unconcerned by what the near future will hold for the fragile heart. The final movement looks forward, now more mature with the knowledge that “Time” heals all wounds—no longer naïve in hope, the wild heart whimsically marches on.
