for Bassoon and Piano (reduction). 48 pages.

***************************************************

Bassoonists have been eagerly awaiting the new Urtext edition of this work, which is widely beloved for its virtuoso passages and inventive richness.

Not only does this edition offer a carefully prepared text; it also features cadenza suggestions by Robert Levin as creative stimuli for the performer.

The sole source for the new edition is the original print (Offenbach: André, 1802?), which was issued in parts. The autograph score itself is lost.

The performing material is published by Breitkopf & Härtel.
