Bass Time - Wim Laseroms

Bass Time, as the name implies, is the time for the bass section to take centre stage. Wim Laseroms composed this simple and elegant march not only with the low brass in mind, but also with the intention of making the whole band shine.

Basses Are Aces - Joseph Compello

Designed by a master offeriting for this grade level, Bases Are Aces was written to encourage the low brass and woodwind players, while still being fun for the whole band to play. A great recruitment piece, it will motivate the frequently overlooked members of the low instrument contingent, who anchor the band. Some simple syncopations, such as a spoken line by the other members of the band ("How low can you go?") and a brief, repeated, "cadenza," add to the fun of this clever piece. Duration: 3' 10"

Bassoon Concerto - Carl Maria von Weber

This work by Carl Maria von Weber and the BASSOON CONCERTO by W. A. Mozart are the two concertos most often played in the bassoon repertory. The late William Waterhouse asserted: The bassoon concerto by Weber ranks second only to that of Mozart in importance. The concertos by Mozart and Weber were in the repertoire used for the famous playing exams at the Paris Conservatoire, along with newly commissioned works by French composers. This transcription of the Weber for bassoon and small wind band has been completed by R. Mark Rogers.
