Instrumental Duet Bassoon,Instrumental Duet,Oboe - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.852772 Composed by Antonio Vivaldi. Arranged by Keith Gemmell. Baroque,Classical,Instructional,Renaissance,Standards. Score and parts. 7 pages. Keith Gemmell #48351. Published by Keith Gemmell (A0.852772). Playing duets with a friend or teacher is an excellent way to improve your performance skills. Here we have an abridged version of ‘Spring’ from Vivaldi’s famous ‘The Four Seasons’ suite, arranged here for oboe and bassoon. A little challenging perhaps but instantly recognizable and enjoyable to play. Suitable for intermediate players and above - no fiendishly difficult bits - the main points to watch out for are the tempo changes at bar 28 (where the oboe slows the tempo before a slight accelerando) and bar 34 (a new tempo, slightly down on the opening one, is established). These tempo markings are not obligatory and the piece can ebb and flow rubato fashion at these points, if you wish. Also, note the rallentando at the end. Enjoy yourselves!
