The Blues Ranger-SOLO BSN

The Blues Ranger
for solo bassoon
by Josh Oxford (b. 1985)- American composer

From the composer:

When I was in elementary school, I was a big fan of the television show, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. Part of the show's theme ("Go go power rangers") is embedded a few times in the piece and serves as the basis for a lot of the material. The piece prominently features the blues scale and the octatonic scale, often seamlessly moving from one scale to the other.
