Sonata Breve Op 38
for bassoon and piano
by Sebastian Huydts (b. 1966)- Dutch composer
I. Cantabile e amabile
II. Adagio
III. Cuando suene la Hora: Allegrissimo

Sebastian Huydts composed "Sonata Breve" in Barcelona in June of 2006. Summer in Barcelona - with its bright sun-lit days and wonderful summer festivals of art, music and dance - almost forces one to see life from a positive perspective. Inspired by some marvelous exhibitions, concerts and dance performances, Huydts centered his bassoon sonata on decidedly lyrical diatonic elements. The versatile sound and capabilities of the bassoon seemed perfect for a piece that he intended [at least in character] to be a companion piece to Prokofiev's Sonata for Flute.

The music consists of three movements. It has challenging technique as well as a very appealing musical effect. This is an exciting work that is an major addition to the bassoon repertoire.
