40+ Country Dance Tunes for Bassoon is a collection of lively country dance tunes arranged for bassoonists of around grades 2 – 4+ standard.

Notes range from Low E to D above the stave, but most pieces fall well within this range. However, several pieces have tricky fingering that beginners may find challenging.

Great for playing for fun, for dances, and brilliant as technical studies or sight-reading practice.
