French composer and conductor Henri Tomasi (1901-1971) published Concerto for Bassoon in 1957. As with his other wind compositions Concerto for Bassoon was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured in to musical studies by his parents Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor and during the summer he stayed with his Grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However in 1921 he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and went on to become a high profile composerand conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes often incorporating into his compositions themes of the songs he had learnt during the summers with his Grandmother. The Concerto for Bassoon is in three movements; 1) Andante and Allegro 2) Serenade Nocturne and 3) Final-Saltarelle. This Tomasi piece is suitable to advanced bassoonists providing an exciting alternative addition to the instrument's repertoire.

Having won many prizes at the Paris Conservatoire during the 1920s-1930s, Eugène Bozza went on to conduct the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and to become Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes. As a major figure on the classical music frontline, Bozza's compositions were well-received by audiences, New Orleans being popular in the bass brass repertoire. This Bozza piece for bass brass with Piano accompaniment was written in 1962. It was orginally composed for Bass Saxhorn but since the instrument was falling into obscurity, Bozza also adapted it for Bass Trombone and Tuba. New Orleans is influenced by the jazz culture of the city. As music educationalist, Paul Griffiths has written of Bozza's compositions, his works reveal melodic fluency, elegance of structure and a consistenly sensitive concern of instrumental capabilities. New Orleans for Bass Trombone, Tuba, or Bass Saxhorn and Piano remains popular in the repertoire of the instruments and is often included in audition syllabuses, making it essential to aspiring performers of bass brass.

French composer Paul Jeanjean (1874-1928) was known primarily for his Clarinet compositions however he also composed significantly for other wind instruments. His Prelude Et Scherzo for Bassoon and Piano remains prominent in the repertoire. As a noted teacher and composer the Paris Conservatoire often called upon Jeanjean to provide music for their own use. Prelude Et Scherzo was composed to be used as a competition and audition piece at the institution. The Prelude is in 6/8 meter and lyrical contrasted bythe fast staccato Scherzo. For all advanced bassoonists Jeanjean's Prelude Et Scherzo is a challenging yet exciting addition to the repertoire.

André Jolivet (1905-1974) established his love for composition from a young age. This remained throughout his life and he held the post of Professor of Composition from 1966-1970 at Paris Conservatoire. Concerto for Bassoon was composed in 1954 and remains highly regarded. Jolivet himself a cellist wished to explore composition for all instruments and therefore has a considerable number of works in all fields. The composer's style is also known for its spirituality and the desire to associate the everyday with the magical and the human with the universal. Jolivet draws on acoustics and atonality asheard in his Concerto for Bassoon. The piece requires high virtuosic skills due to its expansive use of extended techniques. For all advanced bassoonists Jolivet provides an exciting alternative piece for the instrument's repertoire.

Par AUVINEN ANTTI. Antti Auvinen's Karkija for bass clarinet and marimba was a commission of Duo Xylokosmos. The work was premiered on 22 November 2007 by Ingolfur Vilhjalmsson (bass clarinet) and Tobias Kuttman (marimba) in Neumarkt, Austria. This product includes one performance score (B4 sized loose pages) in a folder. In the music of Antti Auvinen (b. 1974), a modernist compositional language is fused with a powerful sense of drama and a charged intensity generated through the explosive clash of conflicting tensions. Auvinen?s soundworld is multifaceted and employs unusual combinations of instruments and a wide variety of modern, often rough and noisy extended techniques. His rich and expressive use of rhythms extends from the meditative stasis of freely notated fields to the edgy, insistent energy of multiple superimposed rhythmic layers. / Date parution : 2022-12-12/ Répertoire / Clarinette Basse et Marimba

During his studies at the Paris Conservatoire Bozza won prizes for Violin conducting and composition as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He then conducted the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and became Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes whilst remaining a prominent composer. Composed in 1945 Bozza's Fantaisie for Bassoon and Piano is a virtuosicwork addressing advanced features including complex rhythms chromaticism a wide range and articulation. As music educationalist Paul Griffiths has written of Bozza's compositions 'his works reveal melodic fluency elegance of structure and a consistently sensitive concern of instrumental capabilities.'
