To capture the mood of the piece those slurs in bars 35 and 36, for example, might even be close to a glissando. Use your imagination to recreate the sailor's state of health!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Vulgar Boatman\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot only more \"hidden\" melodies but more appalling puns! (Volga Boatman for those not versed in Russian folksongs). This is like a waltz: it is written in 3\/4 time but played so as to give the impression of one beat in bar. The melodies need to be well sustained so that we hear four, eight or even more bars as a single phrase. Clues for the musical detective:- in addition to the Volga Boatman, you might spot just a hint of \u003ci\u003e\"Sailing down the River on a Sunday Afternoon\"\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e\"We Sail the Ocean Blue\"\u003c\/i\u003e (H.M.S. Pinafore), \u003ci\u003eThe Eton Boating Song\u003c\/i\u003e and even Wagner's \u003ci\u003eFlying Dutchman\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLast Tango in Harris\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEveryone must surely know these thinly disguised Scottish tunes, but can you make them sound like a tango? Bear in mind that tangos are not jazz: the rhythm is quite strict, but the tango character is in the tone and the phrasing. Notice how expressive the occasional shorter note value can be, as in bars 4 and 5 in the bassoon part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRheumanian Stretches\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOr was that \u003ci\u003eRumanian Sketches\u003c\/i\u003e? This is a chance to play the main melody in two registers of the bassoon. Try to make a good even sound in both octaves. This piece requires careful counting since the phrases in the bassoon part don't always begin where you might expect. Think of this piece as a song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePublisher\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eClifton Edition\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eComposer\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGraham Sheen\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eInstrument\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBassoon\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBinding\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSoftcover\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eISBN\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e9790570811830\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eStock code\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCEC183\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn-store pickup available.
