Black Wind is a musical composition by American composer John Corigliano, written for OBOE and orchestra. The title of the piece is derived from the OBOE's nickname, 'the black wind, ' due to its dark, reedy sound. The piece was composed in 1988 and premiered in 1989. It has since become one of Corigliano's most popular works. The OBOE is the featured instrument in the piece, and its solo part is highly demanding.
