Nino Rota: Elegia: Oboe: Instrumental Work

Elegia is a small piece for Oboe and Piano accompaniment by Nino Rota. Really lyrical its medium difficulty will enable intermediate players to execute it for a recital or for a contest. This lovely work is quite slow nostalgic at some points and ends up on a perfect harmony between the two instruments. Nino Rota (1911-1979) is an Italian composer and conductor particularly known for his works on film music. He also composed 5 ballets 10 orchestras as well as numerous music chamber works including a string concerto.
