              <text>This piece was composed in 2008 and dedicated to Joanne Cannon. It garnered a APRA/UWS Composition award in that year. The music is atonal and challenging, and includes extended techniques, including glissandi, multiphonics, multiphonic trills, flutter tonguing, and tongue slaps.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The composer wrote of this piece: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This five-movement solo work coalesces a number of genres that I have played in as a practising violinist. There is a conventional theme and variations, except that the theme comes in the middle movement rather than at the beginning. The pied butcherbird upon which the work is based sings in rushed gusts of notes; the effect is anticipatory, like beats two-three of a Viennese waltz or beats two and four of an up-tempo bluegrass number. The angularity of the essentially five-bar phrases is appealing. One technique of the birdsong seems particularly familiar to the human ear: in what is conventional fare in works for solo instruments, two separate voices are implied by the octave or more spread between motivic segments and the qualitative difference between the lower and higher material. Octave displacement above and beyond the original birdsong figures in the work. "Notturno" gives a nod to a jazz ballad the way it might be delivered by a saxophonist. "Capriccio" has an étude-like quality; the middle section can be improvised. A composed part is written for non-improvisers. "Tema" stays close to the original field transcription. Although the birdsong has inter-phrase intervals, most of them are swallowed up in "Tema," allowing just enough time for the bassoonist to breath. This mimics the rushed feeling imparted by the bird. "Multifonica" is the breath that was not allowed in the previous movement. The meditation ends with a sudden fanfare of birdsong, just as at times in the quiet of pre-dawn or twilight, a pied butcherbird phrase will leap out of nowhere. "Toccata" is a blues étude. Both "Toccata" and "Capriccio" rely on canonic techniques such as inversion and retrograde. The theme is treated, transposed, cut-and-pasted, and manipulated. A crucial consideration is that, despite the cut-up process, the ear can follow the clarity of the theme at all times, rather than becoming lost in a blur of notes.</text>

                  <text>bassoONLY is a database devoted to music for unaccompanied bassoon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To use this resource, apply keywords at the top right. Keywords may be used to locate works using a wide variety of parameters, such as a particular composer and/or title, instrumentation (e.g. contrabassoon), gender, a country or nationality (e.g. Venezuela or Venezuelan), a duration (e.g. 6 minutes), a compositional style (e.g. avant-garde or jazz), range limit (e.g. C#5), difficulty level (e.g. moderately easy), extended techniques in general or one in particular (e.g. multiphonics or singing while playing), or a year of composition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource is incomplete, and additions and corrections are welcomed. Please contact Jon Beebe at beebejp@appstate.edu if you are able to offer assistance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The repertoire for unaccompanied bassoon is valuable for a number of reasons. Whether music is chosen for study or performance, the technical challenges are often formidable, bringing into play parameters such as texture and color that might be less salient in accompanied music. Just as an extended monologue is a supreme test for an actor, so too is the unaccompanied solo, of which a performer must have an intimate knowledge that transcends the superficial aspects in order to present a truly engaging performance. This can be especially challenging, given the diversity and complexity of modern musical techniques, languages, and styles. And finally, the better pieces seem to embody the intrinsic personae of one of the most idiosyncratic, challenging, and unique musical instruments. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How the Difficulty Levels Are Applied to the Music &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The compositions on this site have been divided into five difficulty levels: Easy, Moderately Easy, Moderately Challenging, Challenging, and Very Challenging. While there is no absolute formula, six factors have been considered in determining an appropriate level for each piece: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. top-most pitch and extent of high register usage &lt;br /&gt;2. key signatures/changes or accidentals &lt;br /&gt;3. clef &lt;br /&gt;4. rhythmic/metric complexity &lt;br /&gt;5. amount of conjunct vs. disjunct motion &lt;br /&gt;6. the use of extended techniques.</text>

                <text>"In September 2007, through a generous collaboration between The Rockefeller Foundation, Teachers College and HBO, 30,000 copies of a new curriculum package addressing the issues of citizenship, race, class and poverty raised in the aftermath of Katrina were distributed to school, college and community educators. The package included a copy of Spike Lee and HBOs epic documentary, When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts, as well the highly acclaimed multidisciplinary curriculum guide, Teaching The Levees. Due to the continued immense demand for this resource, the accompanying curriculum guide is now available for purchase. Teaching The Levees, developed by faculty at Teachers College, Columbia University, includes chapters on history, media literacy, civics, economics and geography. In addition, the guide provides resources, such as a detailed timeline of the unfolding of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath, as well as a map of the New Orleans levee system."</text>

Keywords may be used to locate works using a wide variety of parameters, such as a particular composer and/or title, instrumentation (e.g. contrabassoon), gender, a country or nationality (e.g. Venezuela or Venezuelan), a duration (e.g. 6 minutes), a compositional style (e.g. avant-garde or jazz), range limit (e.g. C#5), difficulty level (e.g. moderately easy), extended techniques in general or one in particular (e.g. multiphonics or singing while playing), or a year of composition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resource is incomplete, and additions and corrections are welcomed. Please contact Jon Beebe at beebejp@appstate.edu if you are able to offer assistance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The repertoire for unaccompanied bassoon is valuable for a number of reasons. Whether music is chosen for study or performance, the technical challenges are often formidable, bringing into play parameters such as texture and color that might be less salient in accompanied music. Just as an extended monologue is a supreme test for an actor, so too is the unaccompanied solo, of which a performer must have an intimate knowledge that transcends the superficial aspects in order to present a truly engaging performance. This can be especially challenging, given the diversity and complexity of modern musical techniques, languages, and styles. And finally, the better pieces seem to embody the intrinsic personae of one of the most idiosyncratic, challenging, and unique musical instruments. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How the Difficulty Levels Are Applied to the Music &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The compositions on this site have been divided into five difficulty levels: Easy, Moderately Easy, Moderately Challenging, Challenging, and Very Challenging. While there is no absolute formula, six factors have been considered in determining an appropriate level for each piece: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. top-most pitch and extent of high register usage &lt;br /&gt;2. key signatures/changes or accidentals &lt;br /&gt;3. clef &lt;br /&gt;4. rhythmic/metric complexity &lt;br /&gt;5. amount of conjunct vs. disjunct motion &lt;br /&gt;6. the use of extended techniques.</text>

              <text>Because these pieces, composed in 1732-33, were originally composed for the flute, they are well suited to the bassoon. They are much shorter than the works by Bach, with some attention given to the breathing requirements of wind players. Some players choose perform them in the original keys, while others prefer transposed editions such as those noted below. Difficulty levels range from moderately easy to challenging. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Editions: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twelve Fantasias. Lawrence KS: Bocal. &lt;br /&gt;For most of these arrangements, Alan Hawkins chose to change the clef, while retaining the original pitch orientation. The resulting keys are a third away from the original; a common Baroque performance practice. A few have been transposed differently to better suit the bassoon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twelve Fantasias. Warngau, GER: Accolade. Arranged by Nikolaus Maler. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twelve Fantasies. Tallevast, FL: TrevCo. &lt;br /&gt;Arranger Harold Wevers has freely transposed all of the fantasias to be friendlier to the instrument.</text>
