Premier Solo - Bassoon and Piano

One of the most popular pieces to ever come out of the Paris Conservatory, Eugène Bourdeau's Premier Solo (First Solo) was written in 1894, and continues to sustain its popularity to this day. This work is technically accessible for an intermediate student, while its expressive challenges create a worthwile pursuit for bassoonists of even the highest caliper.

This edition is edited by Himmie Vozman, and includes some of his additions, inluding dynamics and articulations, but most of the edition is presented exactly as it is in the first edition by Bourdeau. The score and part both include English translations of some French terms.
