Comment:

A work in progress: suggestions cheerfully accepted.
A gathering of songs with the common property of double-reededness. Oboes, English horns, krumhorns, bassoons, contrabassoons, bagpipes, Uilleann pipes, you name it.
It's surprising how the timbre holds it together so far. I'd like to get some more variety in it, though.
