The \u003cem\u003eBallade in E Minor for Bassoon and Piano\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 151, by Josef Vendelín Hájek, written in the southeast of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1879, thus stands as a remarkably unique specimen both within the bassoon repertoire and among instrumental ballades more broadly. This colorful, expressive work, preserved in manuscript in the National Library of the Czech Republic, not only expands the geographic and stylistic profiles of the late-Romantic bassoon solo repertoire but also sheds some light on a corner of nineteenth-century music history otherwise little represented in modern editions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Greenway Music Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44754233131087,"sku":"GMP016","price":27.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/0697802fdc262c5e5395f6ebee3156dd.jpg?v=1776285567","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/pt\/products\/hajek-ballade-in-e-minor-op-151-ar","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
