Concerto, op. 66
for oboe, bassoon, and piano
by Victor Bruns (1904-1996) - German bassoonist and composer
I. Allegro sostenuto
II. Andante tranquillo
III. Allegro giocoso
Bruns' style, which has its roots in the Russian traditions with which he grew up, is musical through and through; the musical ideas teem with cheerful invention- flowering cantilena motifs dominate, together with a pregnant rhythmic inventiveness that is never obscure. The concerto displays especial charm, the demanding virtuosic solo parts of which are always well-conceived for their instrument and never rely on a superficial straining for effect.
The orchestral material is on hire from the publisher.
