Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quartet Bassoon - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1026218 Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Gillian Horn. Classical,World. 9 pages. G. Horn #5997803. Published by G. Horn (A0.1026218). W. A. Mozart, Menuetto from Symphony no. 40 (K. 550)arranged for Bassoon Quartet by G. HornMozart is considered one of the greatest melody-writers in musical history, and this Menuetto from his 40th Symphony is a great example of this.The movement explores an angry and robust G minor theme. Although it is titled as a Minuet, the use of hemiola and three bar phrases would have made the movement quite difficult to dance to, something which certainly would have amused playful Mozart! We then have the contrast in the trio section with a softer, sweeter G major theme before returning to our Minuet once more.Mozart has always been a favourite composer of mine and the rambunctious nature of the piece works fantastically well for bassoon quartet! I hope you will enjoy playing it as much as I have.Duration: 4 mins approx. Original key. Score and parts included. Can also be performed by trombone quartet.This arrangement was originally written for Genovia Quartet in 2020 by bassoonist Gillian Horn.www.genoviaquartet.com

There is virtually no literature for such an ensemble so I took a quartet I had arranged for wind quartet and repurposed it for that ungainly collection. Four bassoons should be equally amusing to hear. All voices have melody at some point.

Bassoon Quartet,Woodwind Ensemble Bassoon - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1449305 Composed by American Folk Song. Arranged by Amanda Jaye Steinhoff. Chamber,Folk. 8 pages. Amanda Jaye Steinhoff #1025585. Published by Amanda Jaye Steinhoff (A0.1449305). This traditional folksong, which dates back to the early 19th century, has been given some new life with this arrangement for bassoon quartet. The floating melody, primarily in the 1st bassoon part, is passed around to other players, while the 4th bassoon lays the strong foundation, much like the strong a steady current of the Missouri River. The dynamics in this arrangement urge the performers to swell in and out and they play, reflective of the ripples in the water as canoes and boats float by. Be sure not to rush this piece, and refer to some of the traditional lyrics:Oh Shenandoah,I long to hear you,Away, you rolling river.'Tis seven years since last I've seen you,Away, you rolling river.There is a sense of longing in the various lyrics of the original folk song, whether because of missing home, missing a loved one, or the pains of forbidden love. Performers are urged to play with the same delicacy of those intimate emotions and gentle waters of the large river. The ending should be reflective of echoes in the open air on the river as one floats across the wide Missouri.

Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quartet Bassoon - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.767558 Composed by Mike Lyons. Arranged by Mike Lyons. Concert,Contemporary. 34 pages. Lyons Music Services #5984929. Published by Lyons Music Services (A0.767558). An original horn quartet inspired by a conversation about writing for horns. There are three movements. After some time, I decided to see if this would work well on woodwinds and lo and behold, it sits really nicely on bassoon.The first movement is called Canon. It consists of a simple theme that is presented in imitation by each of the four 'voices' first at 2 bar intervals then, in inversion at four bar intervals and then in the original form at one bar intervals. There is a linking fanfare-like passage before the final statement of the original motif with fanfare-like adaptations.The second movement is called Lullaby. The elegant, drifting melody is passed around the four players with a largely chordal accompaniment pattern that needs to be played sotto voce at all times. The tempo is marked Largo, but it is still one-in-a-bar.The third movement is called Hullabaloo-haloo-haloo. While it is based on a 6/8 cantering rhythm, there is a lot of variation in both the accompaniment and the melody. Again, all the lines have a lot of interest, nobody has to play simple um-chucks, and there's even a solo for the Contra  at the end.This is a really enjoyable and exciting new addition to the Bassoon quartet repertoire.
