Gabriel Pierné - Solo de concert for bassoon and piano Op. 35 (audio + sheet music)

The Solo de concert for bassoon and piano was commissioned by the Paris Conservatoire for their 1898 bassoon competition. It is in three sections - a dramatic opening section followed by a lyrical, cantabile middle section and concluding with a brilliant coda. A varied piece essential to the repertoire of aspiring bassoonists, it contains many characteristics typical of the French style, such as significant tempo changes and performance directions, flourishes of semiquavers, chromaticism and many alterations in dynamics.
