Neurotic Goldfish
Neurotic Goldfish is an edited and corrected edition from the library of octets composed by Alec Wilder, written between 1938 and 1940, with another group written in 1947. During the late thirties, several composers were intrigued with short-form composing using jazz rhythms and harmonies. Wilder's titles for these octets were sometimes autobiographical, sometimes elusive. With a unique instrumentation of Oboe, Clarinet 1, Clarinet 2, Bass Clarinet, Bassoon, Harpsichord, Bass and Drums, this work delves into the jazz/swing idiom for non-traditional jazz unstruments.
