Trojak for Bassoon Quartet by Ryszard Paciorkiewicz

Trojak for Bassoon Quartet by Ryszard Paciorkiewicz. International Music Diffusion, 1992, SS, includes score and parts. This piece begins Allegretto in 3/4 but after the first 16 bars is Vivo in 2/4. This is appropriate as Trojak (which means "threesome" or "trio" in Polish) is a Silesian folk dance. It is a double partner dance and performed in groups of three: one male dancer and two female dancers. The music of the dance has two parts: a slow one in 3/4 and a fast one in 2/4 (but judging from samples of the dance on YouTube, not too fast). (B090)
