A Study in all Keys
for Bassoon,
(transcribed by Martin
Gatt from Study in
all Keys for Flute
by Louis
Drouet)..
The
first edition of this
work was published by
Phylloscopus Publications
in
2000.
Drouet’s
Study in all
Keys is typically
virtuosic and technically
demanding, and well
suited to the flute. It
extends over 365 bars,
moving through all the
tonalities, as the title
suggests. There is no
comparable exercise in
the bassoon repertoire,
and Martin Gatt has
provided a transcription
of this teaching aid for
the benefit of post-Grade
8 students.
Louis
Drouet (1792 – 1873)
was a famous flautist,
born in Amsterdam. It is
recorded that he played
at the Paris
Conservatoire, aged
seven, and that he was a
composition pupil of
Méhul and Reicha. He
toured with his father in
the early years of the
19th century, and was
appointed court soloist
to the King of Holland in
1808. A similar
appointment with the
Emperor of France
followed in 1811. He was
a very successful
performer and when the
monarchy was restored in
France, he became first
flute in the Royal
Chapel. In 1817, he
appeared in London to
great acclaim. He spent
three years in Naples as
Director of the Royal
Opera, then disappeared
from view until
Mendelssohn persuaded him
to return to the concert
circuit. He visited
Paris, London, New York
and Frankfurt, and spent
15 years in Gotha,
Germany.
