This sonata was originally written for cello and continuo by the Italian composer Giuseppe Torelli, but offers the bassoonist a chance to play a work in the baroque style that has two very expressive movements and two somewhat technical movements.  The difficulty is about intermediate, due to the two faster movements, and the two slower movements provide much room for expression.  The form is slow-fast-slow-fast, and total time for all four movements is about 4:50.  The piece would be ideal for recital, church, or just practice.  It is probably of an intermediate level, and is great music.  The range is two octaves, from F# below the staff to F# above.

The music was produced using Finale, probably the top music engraving software available, and printed on high quality 67 pound paper.  The piano part is plastic comb bound to protect the music and to make page turning easy.  I feel that you will be very pleased with production of the music.

Upon purchase, I will also email you the MP3 files of just the accompaniment so that you can play along.  If you would prefer a CD with the accompaniment instead, I will do that - please let me know your preference.

If you would like a Smart Music accompaniment sent to you, I will send it to you as a free gift after you purchase the piece!!!
