This is a wonderful piece that has been edited to suit the sensibilities of the oboe. I enjoy playing this piece greatly. I highly recommend.

This is an arrangement of the famous Sonatine for solo piano by Ravel of 1903. It a high qualiy transcription by David Walters, oboe professor at the Guildhall School of Music. He has recorded it himself and there are several versions on youtube. Try the Elaine Douvas which is magical before you buy. Very few people can match her performance.
It is beautifully lyrical but high and fast. It is in the original key so there are many top F#s and one top A with an ossia. If you like using the extreme upper register and 3rd octave key it can be wonderfully rewarding with the right reed.
It repays effort but it is like playing a Gillet study, often pianissimo for 11 minutes and needs stamina. Your pianist needs to be as good as possible. The Sonatine is a great performance piece if you have the technique and stamina and your audience will recognise it. If you are an advanced player you won’t be disappointed.
