Pigs (encore from Kammerkonzert II, Richard Strauss Tage 2024)

On 7 June 2024, as part of the Richard Strauss Festival in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a concert took place to celebrate the 120th birthday of the heckelphone.
This is the encore from this concert - Alan Ridout's "Pigs", originally written in 1973 for four bassoons and adapted for four heckelphones by John McDougall in 2020, performed here by Ulrich Brokamp, Harry Searing, Holger Hoos and Amelia Coleman.
