Originally thought to have been written for Clarinet in C and Orchestra, recent scholarship, culminating in Heinz Holliger’s brilliant recording (Philips 9500 564), has provided many good reasons why the oboe is clearly the solo instrument. Not only does it ‘look like’ oboe music but the writing (within the oboe’s exact range at that time) ignores more than an octave of the clarinet’s potential range. Also, it is most unusual to find the solo wind instrument duplicated in the accompanying orchestral parts, thus providing unnecessary competition in timbre.Frédéric Chopin: Variations on a Theme by RossiniNo such ambiguity surrounds the origin of Chopin’s Variations on a Theme from Rossini’s opera La Cenerentola — orginally for flute. It is not definitely known for whom they were written, but they may have been either for his father (who played the flute), or for his close friend Matuszynski. They date from 1826-30 and here transposed from the original E major into D major for the oboe, provide a valuable addition to the oboist’s nineteenth century repertoire.[/bg_collapse]Arranged by Mark GoddardGrades 7–8Former Spartan Press Cat.

White Light was commissioned by Fumiko Teramoto, oboist with the Musashino Grand Concert Band from Tokyo, Japan. The request was for a moderately slow piece, of intermediate difficulty, which included White in the title, as this is her lucky colour. Composer Philip Sparke decided to use this suggestion to write a piece that was bright and light in terms of harmony and colour, with much use of simple major and minor chords and an emphasis on pure and transparent timbres. He was also keen to capture the essence and history of the oboe as a solo instrument - the piece is pastoral in character and often almost baroque in style. Also available for oboe and concert band (AMP317-010/140). Wit is de gelukskleur van het opdrachtgevende orkest van dit uitdagende solowerk voor hobo en piano. Philip Sparke schreef daarom een opgewekte compositie. Het zwaartepunt ligt op de heldere klanken van het hoge hout en de harmonie,klankkleur en instrumentatie is helder en doorzichtig.Ook verkrijgbaar voor hobo en harmonieorkest (AMP 317-010/140).Weiß ist die Glücksfarbe des auftraggebenden Blasorchesters und daher im Titel dieses Solowerks für Oboe und Klavier. Passend dazu schuf Philip Sparke ein Stück, das sowohl heiter als auch hell in seiner Harmonik, seinen Farben und seiner Orchestrierung ist, viele einfache Dur- und Mollakkorde enthält und den Schwerpunkt auf die klaren Klänge der hohen Holzbläser im Orchester legt. Ebenfalls erhältlich für Oboe und Blasorchester (AMP 317-010/140).Les indications données étaient les suivantes : une pièce modérément lente et de difficulté moyenne ; enfin, le mot ‘blanc ‘ devait figurer dans le titre, faisant ainsi allusion la couleur fétiche de l'orchestre dédicataire. C'est en s'inspirant de ces quelques éléments que Philip Sparke composa White Light, une pièce lumineuse et harmonieusement légère. De caractère pastoral et de style plutôt baroque, White Light expose avec passion la quintessence du hautbois. Disponible en version Hautbois et piano, elle existe également pour Hautbois solo et orchestre d'harmonie.In questo lavoro per oboe solista e pianoforte, Philip Sparke crea un pezzo che è allo stesso tempo allegro e luminoso nella sua armonia e nei colori, e che nell'orchestrazione contiene molti semplici accordi maggiori e minori. Disponibile anche per oboe e banda (AMP 317-010/140).

Composed for oboe and piano accompaniment, Piece V by Cesar Franck is a melodious piece for intermediate players. The piece begins with a quiet introduction starting Andantino quasi allegretto. The main theme is then played twice with the piano introducing each phrases followed by the oboe repeating them. The piece ends in a really nice harmony between the oboe and the piano. There is no major difficulty in this really soft work which would be thoroughly enjoyed by the audience during a recital. Cesar Franck (1822-1890) was a renowned musician (organ and piano), composer and professor born in the United Kingdom of Netherland (Liege) who was based in Paris. Even though he only produced few compositions, some of these pieces were very famous such as Symphony in D minor and Prelude, Chorale and Fugue among others.

Andante for oboe and piano was found only after the composers death in 2014. According to his private notes discovered by his family, it was written in 1951, which means that it is one of its earliest compositions. This one-part work, set in neoromantic aesthetics, is based on two themes. The first one - in D Minor - initially appears in the piano part, and then it is captured by the oboe. It puts a listener in a tranquil, sentimental mood. The second one - in D Major - is livelier and jollier (piu mosso), though in terms of melodic motifs some of its fragments come closer to the first theme in a form of its variation-style development. This is capped by a solo cadenza of the oboe that leads to the recapitulation of the first theme and the following tranquil, cantilena-style coda. Jozef Swiders Andante for oboe and piano, despite its charming simplicity, is a work full of reverie, nostalgia and subtle melancholy. This proves the young composer's liking for clarity, lyricism and romantic expression, typical of his late artistic work.
