“Andr
é 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,
as heard 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.â€.
