'Skyways was written for the 2012 Calefax Composition Competition. Rodrigo Baggio (b. 1976) uses classical composition and his knowledge of Brazilian music to create this transcultural piece. The work is organized around a single ostinato pattern. The composer was inspired to blend elements of various ostinatos together after he studied patterns found in American and Brazilian music. The composer’s favorite American ostinato patterns are found in the works of Herbie Hancock and “The Head Hunters.” Baggio wanted to combine funk ostinato patterns with styles of Brazilian baiāo typically produced by musicians like Hermeto Paschoal' (Dr. Natalie Szabo on her treatise 'An Annotated Bibliography of Original Reed Quintet Repertoire' - Florida State University).
