To this day Eugène Bozza (1905-1991) remains one of the most prolific composers for wind instruments despite being a violinist himself. His 15 Daily Studies for Bassoon will enable the pupil to attain brilliant technique on the instrument. During his studies at the Paris Conservatoire Bozza won prizes for Violin conducting and composition as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He then conducted the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and became Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes whilst remaining a prominent composer. The exercises in Bozza's 15 Daily Studies ensure frequent practice ofrange intervals embouchure breath control phrasing articulation performance directions dynamics and chromaticism among other aspects. 15 Daily Studies for Bassoon is a unique and essential aid in the progression of advanced Bassoon technical studies.

Ballad for Bass Trombone est une pièce charmante qui dévoile le timbre noble et les immenses possibilités de cet instrument a priori pas très virtuose et dont le répertoire ne compte hélas que très peu d?oeuvres pour soliste. Cette composition pourtant contient quelques beaux défi s techniques pour le soliste et un accompagnement orchestral relativement peu exigeant.

Volume 2-Score with realisation of the basso continuo by Tonelli as well as Corelli’s unrealized figured bass line With a separate Urtext violin partWith a separate unrealized figured continuo partIncludes a supplement with violin embellishmentsAppendices in both volumes with source descriptions and critical commentariesPreludes for keyboard instrument by Tonelli in the appendix of volume 2Arcangelo Corelli the violin virtuoso of his time published his Sonatas for Violin and Basso continuo opus V in Rome in 1700. These sonatas are a compendium of violin playing of his time and laid the groundwork for future violin compositions. Over the years the sonatas have been published innearly 100 editions all based on Corelli’s first edition which contains only the solo violin line above an unrealized bass line. Today the sonatas are well known in numerous modern continuo realizations. However a realization from Corelli’s time by Antonio Tonelli also exists and is presented here for the first time in a modern performing edition. This realization is surprising in that it contains full chords sometimes played by both hands. In addition Bärenreiter’s new scholarly-critical edition includes for the first time many violin embellishments. For the most part they have been found in handwritten documents by Tartini Geminiani McGibbon Dubourg and Roger (from a re-print of the sonatas from c. 1710). These embellishments are presented in a separate booklet which players can place alongside Corelli’s original on the music stand. Complementing this Urtext edition are a historical introduction a critical commentary and an appendix containing preludes to the sonatas for keyboard by Tonelli.

Arranger : David Heyes The Transcriptions Series series Recital Music publish a wealth of original works for double bass alongside a popular, accessible and growing range of transcriptions for bassists of all ages and abilities. Most transcriptions published by Recital Music are by David Heyes, who has a successful and proven track record when arranging for double bass. Czardas for violin and piano is Monti's only famous work, believed to have been composed in the early years of the 20th-century, and has been composed for almost every instrument, every instrumental combination, and performed by every gipsy orchestra or ensemble. The slow rhapsodic introduction quickly leads into the main theme which is full of rhythmic fire and gipsy passion. A slow section, primarily in double stops, is then repeated in high harmonics before a brief return of the fast viruosic music which leads into a reprise of the Czardas material, but now in the tonic major. A fast and energetic finale brings the piece to a rousing and successful conclusion. This exciting new arrangement by David Heyes offers musical and technical challenges in equal measure and the edition includes accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings. An arrangement for double bass quartet is in preparation. Italian composer, conductor and violinist, Vittorio Monti was born in Naples on 6 January 1868 and died on 20 June 1922. He studied at the Conservatorio di San Pietro a Majella with F. Pinto (violin) and Paolo Serrao (composition) and moved to Paris in 1886 where he studied violin with Camillo Sivori, Paganini's most famous pupil. For many years Monti was a member of the Lamoureux Orchestra in Paris, also conducting the orchestra on occasions, and composed ballets, operettas and instrumental music during his years in the French capital.

Although known primarily for his choral music Humphrey Clucas has written a number of successful works for double bass and his lively and easy going compositional style has been popular with players and teachers alike. Aimed at the good intermediate bassist (Grade 6/7) this suite is similar to the Bach Cello Suite format and consists of a Prelude followed by a set of dance-movements. Written in a lively and approachable style there are effective musical and technical challenges within the orchestral register and these would be ideal as both study and concert music. Baroque Suite was premiered by Eloise Riddell during Bass-Fest (2009) at Wells Cathedral School

Fg. Par GERNOT WOLFGANG. ...clever, finely-crafted, interesting modern work for the bassoon (...) Wolfgang's style is fundamentally atonal, but highly developmental, utilizing very interesting melodic and rhythmic motives to bind the music together. The influences of jazz and rock are clearly audible, and the entire structure has a wonderful sense of finesse and completion. (...) If you are looking for a tough-but-fun composition for your next performance, this neat work will fill the bill very well. I recommend it strongly to all you brave bassoonists out there looking for a nifty challenge. (Double Reed, Vol. 31.No. 2) ...This little sketch for bassoon, which highlights both its energetic and its lyrical capabilities, is quite delightful. Even multiphonics are used imaginatively and to musically sensible effect, rather than displaying their more common function as exercises in ugliness. ...' (Walter Simmons, Fanfare Magazine, August 2008)/ Répertoire / Basson

Revisione di Piermario Murelli. Par BOTTESINI GIOVANNI. Giovanni Bottesini (1821-1889) is certainly the most famous of all double bass virtuosi; his compositions are an essential pillar of the literature on this instrument. His Metodo, published in 1870 by Ricordi, is remarkable for the exceptional beauty of its studies which, with effectiveness, good taste and imagination, develop an extraordinarily modern pedagogical vision. For this reason, on the bicentenary of the composer\'s birth, it seems most opportune to re-propose the studies in the method, appropriately fingered according to the current system, which is different from the one used in Italy in the mid-19th century. These short pieces not only help the student to acquire an excellent technique in a short time, but they are also extremely useful to better understand the instrumental language of Bottesini; in particular the second part, constitutes an excellent propaedeutic base for the study of his famous pieces./ Etude / Contrebasse
