00:00 - I. Scherzo: Allegro brilliante _____ Bassoon: Ann Shoemaker Piano: Kae Hosoda-Ayer Year of Recording: 2018 _____ “Miroshnikov was a Russian bassoonist who lived in Paris for some time. Other than this interesting tid-bit, very little is known about him. A bassoon teacher by the name of Gustave Dherin came across Scherzo and published it; after which it became popular. Sol Schoenbach, the former principal bassoonist of the Philadelphia Orchestra, characterized the piece as, ’The little piece that everyone loves.’“ (Sean Van Hatten) _____ Note: I am not positive that the person in the introduction is actually the composer - very limited information on him. _____ © COPYRIGHT Disclaimer, Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976.
