Mélanie Hélène Bonis, known as Mel Bonis (21 January 1858 – 18 March 1937), was a prolific French late-Romantic composer. She wrote more than 300 pieces, including works for piano solo and four hands, organ pieces, chamber music, mélodies, choral music, a mass, and works for orchestra. Though she did not have the advantage of being born into a family in the upper classes, her talent at piano led her to formal education at the Paris Conservatory where she studied with Ernest Guiraud and César Franck.  Claude Debussy was among her classmates and her music, which was largely published during her lifetime, was praised by Camille Saint-Saëns. Adoro te devote, a text by Thomas Aquinas, is one of the medieval poetic compositions, being used as spoken prayers and also as chanted hymns, which were preserved in the Roman Missal published in 1570 following the Council of Trent (1545–1563); the opus number for this lovely piece by Bonis, expanded from the original SATB to full concert band, is 149, suggesting that it was composed around the turn of the 20th century.

1. Moderato quasi Andante - Allegretto
2. Très lent
3. Final. Moderato molto - Allegro con fuoco - Quasi andante - Lento - Mouvement de l'allegro - Vivo - Mouvement de l'allegro - Maestoso - Mouvement de l'allegro sans presser

it was dedicated to A Maurice Demaison. A masterpiece by Mel Bonis, French female composer who isn't forgotten, she just isn't yet discovered by the wide audience. My five cents to make it happen. This is just one of more than 300 compositions from her ouevre. Originally, it is composed for violoncello and piano, but the majority of cellists seem not to care very much about its existence... and we, double bassists are missing so badly such great sonatas -Božo Paradžik

Mel Bonis (1858 - 1937) was a prolific French classical composer. She wrote more than 300 compositions, including works for piano solo and four hands, organ pieces, chamber music, mélodies, choral music, a mass, and works for orchestra.

Because she felt women were not respected as composers in the era, she shortened her given name - Melanie. 

This lively piece has the feel of a gallop, fanfare and show piece all in one. It’s a headlong musical frolic from the opening to the big finish and it’s downhill all the way. The piece practically plays itself! A great finale or encore piece that will leave your audiences smiling.
