Par HARRIS PAUL. Now more than ever, the ability to sight-read fluently is an essential part of the training of musicians of any instrument. This workbook is designed to help young musicians overcome the nerves that often cause sight-reading problems, by giving them thorough technical grounding as well as confidence boosting strategies. This book is designed especially for bassoon players working for the Grades 1-5 examinations. Step by step it helps the player to build up a complete picture of each piece, first through rhythmic and melodic exercises related to specific problems, then by the study of a prepared piece with associated questions for the student to answer, then finally to the real, unprepared sight-reading test itself. / Niveau : Facile / Etude / Basson

Par KNUSSEN OLIVER. Study for “Metamorphosis” for solo bassoon was composed by Oliver Knussen in the early 1970s but was withdrawn and later revised by the composer in 2018. Two earlier versions of the piece exist: an incomplete copy of the work’s earliest incarnation – entitled Study in Metamorphosis and dated 1972 – and a revised version from 1973, which uses the current title.   / Instrumental Music / Répertoire / Basson

Par LEHMANN ALEXANDRA. Testing variations on an original theme Popi is our black cat. She is chubby, lazy, ungainly, not very clever and a bit weird. And we love her. Why a bassoon piece for Popi? Clara started the bassoon two years ago, and I have enjoyed becoming more acquainted with the instrument. It can be lyrical, comic, plaintive, mellow or frenetic. All attributes Popi possesses. Whether she is lamenting (just to get attention), running from one end of the flat to the other and bouncing off the sofa, playing hide-and-seek ready to pounce on our feet, sleeping under the blanket on Clara's bed, or enjoying the sun in the garden: Popi's many moods inspired this passacaglia for bassoon. / Niveau : Avancé / Répertoire / Basson

Fg. Par GERNOT WOLFGANG. ...clever, finely-crafted, interesting modern work for the bassoon (...) Wolfgang's style is fundamentally atonal, but highly developmental, utilizing very interesting melodic and rhythmic motives to bind the music together. The influences of jazz and rock are clearly audible, and the entire structure has a wonderful sense of finesse and completion. (...) If you are looking for a tough-but-fun composition for your next performance, this neat work will fill the bill very well. I recommend it strongly to all you brave bassoonists out there looking for a nifty challenge. (Double Reed, Vol. 31.No. 2) ...This little sketch for bassoon, which highlights both its energetic and its lyrical capabilities, is quite delightful. Even multiphonics are used imaginatively and to musically sensible effect, rather than displaying their more common function as exercises in ugliness. ...'
