Bassoon, Bassoon Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.998889
Composed by Robert A. Howard. This edition: pdf. 20th Century, Classical, Contemporary, Contest, Festival, Instructional. Individual part. 7 pages. Robert A. Howard #6496061. Published by Robert A. Howard (A0.998889).
This is a set of three solo bassoon works. The first piece, Pierrot, develops the notion of 'line'. It explores various facets of the instrument (as in the more complex nature of Pierrot's Commedia Dell'Arte character). The piece features a serial 'note-row' procedure but in a relaxed manner, more akin to Berg than either Schoenberg or Webern. The second piece, Folk Lament, alludes to a folk idiom by using modality (characterised by the flattened seventh degree of the scale) within a sonata form structure. The two main themes give a broad feel of being improvised and, particularly in the case of the second subject, includes composed-out forms of folk-like ornamentation. The final piece, The Clown, employs bluesy inflections, an irregular time signature (5/4) and a clear rondo structure. Varied repetitions of the main, jaunty theme, alternate with contrasting episodes in related keys, one of which is even a derivation of the 12-bar Blues. The set is highly accessible and suitable for more advanced bassoonists including students and professionals. Each movement within this set is also available to purchase individually via Sheet Music Plus.
Duration: 8 minutes 40 seconds.
