Duration

Description

These well-known pieces are pitch-centric and predominantly lyrical, although the technical demands and range requirements make some of the pieces very challenging. They were composed between 1979 and 1981, with the French basson in mind; consequently the upper register is exploited in some of the waltzes, even up to F#5. The LRO edition also includes the less well known Sonatina. Three of the waltzes, Apanhei-te, Valsa quasi Modinheira, and Pattapiada, were required pieces for the 1998 Gillet Competition sponsored by the IDRS.
