The 'Concerto pour Hautbois' was written in 1991. In fact, it is a new version of the 'Concerto for Harmonica and Symphony Orchestra' commissioned by the famous harmonica virtuoso Larry Adler in 1954. The latter also created it in Birmingham (England) the same year. There is no other oboe part in the band, in order to hold the tone color of the solo instrument in the spotlight.
