50+ Greatest Classics for Bassoon

From the Publisher

In 50+ Greatest Classics for Bassoon, many of the tunes are easy, but not all. This book is suitable for beginner to intermediate bassoon players and ideal for the progressing younger player who needs music to play that is not too high or too low. It has more than fifty classics, so you’ll always have a good variety of music to play.

We’ve gathered together and arranged extracts from the most popular classics from the world’s greatest composers. It’s brilliant when you start to play a piece that you gradually begin to recognise. Questions fill your mind. Where do I know this from? How come I know this? I don’t recognise the title but….somehow it’s there stuck in your head! Those are the pieces I’ve included here – you know the ones!

Composers include – Bach, Purcell, Handel, Vivaldi, Mozart, Rossini, Beethoven, Chopin, Delibes, Tchaikovsky, Borodin, Elgar, Strauss, Saint-Saëns, Holst, Dukas, Bizet, Verdi, Puccini, Wagner and many more and we’ve compiled the arrangements with the easiest at the beginning of the book. It has been a lot of fun.

In 50+ Greatest Classics for bassoon, you’ll find music from The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, La Traviata, Carmen, Lohengrin, Carnival of the Animals and much more – orchestral music, ballet, opera, choral – you name it and it’s in the book.
