Title
A Transcription of Sergei Prokofiev's Sonata for Flute and Piano Op. 94 for Bassoon and Piano
Description
The versatility of the bassoon has always been a signature trait, noticeable both inthe diversity of canonic works conceived for the instrument and in transcriptions. While
Russian composer and pianist, Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953), is well-known for his
orchestral and piano compositions, outside from moments in his compositions for
orchestra, most woodwind musicians have been unable to experience his solo repertoire
and writing style. Prokofiev did not write any solo compositions for the bassoon. In fact,
his only solo work for woodwinds is his Sonata for Flute and Piano, Op. 94. The purpose
of this project is to transcribe Prokofiev’s Sonata for Flute and Piano, Op. 94 for bassoon
and piano as an addition to the bassoon solo literature. The project begins with an
historical overview of both composer and composition, then turns into a description of
the rationale and process of transcription, followed by the transcription for bassoon and
piano itself as well as a complete recording.
