I happened across this on the TV today, on the Art of Landscape's UK Freeview channel. The insistence of the main theme does capture something of the windmill's determination and relentless turning in the face of the wind, up there on the downs (shouldn't anthropomorphise a windmill I suppose, but there you go).
not true. you've got to look at it from a perspective. this video matches the song perfectly. both are about the countryside, and peace, and rhythm...both are something you have to have patience to listen to/watch, but it's well worth it
The first solo around 1:58 is flute; I'm doing it for orchestra this year. Then the oboe comes in, then the flute again.
The oboe solo is gorgeous though (:

I don't think that is oboe, should be flute.
