from Tone and Performance Studies. Par WEISSENBORN JULIUS. Julius Weissenborn is best remembered today for the teaching material written for use at the Leipzig Conservatorium where he taught bassoon from 1882. His two famous tutor books are still the most popular bassoon etudes in use today, well over 120 years after they were written. This anthology represents the first-ever publication that contains all 11 of the extant full recital pieces for bassoon and piano that Weissenborn envisioned as the third part to this tutor in a single volume. Southern Music is proud to present this fine collection of Tone and Performance Studies to players of all levels, edited by veteran Principal Bassoonist for the Detroit Symphony, Robert Williams.

Par HERPAY AGNES. Comprising four printed books and rich digital material, the Bassoon ABC is a modern and innovative instrumental method by Ágnes Herpay, a successful Hungarian bassoonist and teacher. The method itself comprises two volumes (Z. 20092, Z. 20093), while piano accompaniments have been published in two further volumes (Z. 20092P, Z. 20093P). Sound recordings of all pieces in the Bassoon ABC are available online at Digikotta free of charge using the individual code in the printed book. In the case of pieces with piano accompaniment and those for two or three bassoons, the voices can also be played individually, which can be very helpful in music education if no chamber-music partner or accompanist is available. The Bassoon ABC is also suitable for students learning tenoroon (in F or G) or fagonello (bassoonello) because transposed versions of the recordings and the sheet music are also available at Digikotta. (Transposed sheet music of the piano accompaniments can be downloaded at Digikotta free of charge using the individual code in the printed piano accompaniment.) / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Méthode / Basson

Exercises and studies in this book have been written for the specific purpose of supplementing any of the elementary methods available. The book is in no way intended to serve as a method or as a course of progressive instruction for the Bassoon. This book is divided into two general classifications: studies for rhythmic development and scale, arpeggio, and interval exercises which are so indispensable in mastering any instrument.
