Description:
This short work is partly based on the well-known bassoon solo from 'Peter and the Wolf', the musical fairy tale by Sergei Prokofiev. However, the original melody is presented in 'inversion': ascending intervals become descending ones, and vice versa. The middle 'cantabile' section is mainly situated in the higher bassoon register, thus forming a lovely contrast with the other parts. The piano accompaniment is modest and transparent, so that the bassoon is not drowned out.
