Created in 1947 as part of the four exam pieces for the Paris Conservatoire this Sonate for Oboe and Piano is one of the early works of Henri Dutilleux (1916-2013) a French Composer following the paths of Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy with an idiosyncratic way of writing. Sonate was part of the compositions that were later disowned by the composer who considered them as being not mature enough compared to his main work even though they were played and enjoyed regularly all over the world. This duet integrates a variety of contrapuntal procedures which were highly appreciated by the composer. Composed of threemovements the first one begins with an austere canon while the latter two comprise more texture. Henri Dutilleux was internationally acclaimed for his work winning prizes such as the Gold Medal of the Royal Philharmonic Society and the UNESCO's International Rostrum of Composers among many others. His work also includes a Piano sonata two symphonies the Cello concerto Tout un monde lointain (A whole distant world) the Violin concerto L'arbre des songes (The tree of dreams) and the string quartet Ainsi la nuit (Thus the night).

Giovanni Boni is a little known Italian composer from – presumably – the first half of the 18th century. Multiple records of composers with identical or similar names from that period can be found whocould indeed have been one and the same person and the Giovanni Boni at hand could have been any or none of them! Evelyn Rothwell edited and arranged four pieces from the Walsh edition of the “Solos for a GermanFlute Hoboy or Violin compos’d by Sigr. Giovanni Boni” into the Oboe Sonata In G for Oboe with Piano accompaniment.This hidden gem of Italian Baroque music should not be dismissed as the charmingly melodic sonata is a particular delight for musicians and audiences alike. The four movements (Preludio – Largo Allegro Alla Siciliana Allegro) can be played separatelyor together their total performance time is approximately 8:30 minutes.Boni’s Sonata In G is well within the capabilities of the average student or amateur Oboe player and aunique addition to the solo player’s repertoire!

Gabriel's Oboe Ennio Morricone's famous theme to the film The Mission is here presented in a version for either Piano solo or for Oboe with Piano accompaniment. Separate Piano solo Oboe and Pianoaccompaniment parts are included. A personal favorite of Kyle Stanford.

The work makes great demands on the soloist and especially in the more freely fashioned sections gives him many occasions to display his virtuosity. Of exceptional charm is a section entitled 'Tempo di Valse' which the composer enhanced through two ?Alternativi.'The edition is based on the autograph score preserved in London's British Museum.
